But it does add a nice touch to it.  Maybe they should paint one on there? 
Just kidding.

Local wags have placed a Burger King crown to decorate a cannon on Dun
Laoghaire pier. The cannon overlooking Scotsman's Bay and the James
Joyce Tower at Sandycove, is a Russian one captured during the Crimean
War in the 19th century - probably at the siege of Sevastapol. It has
the Romanov coat of arms embossed on it. Sony A7ii with kit zoom.
