Sword, book and Union flag among gifts exchanged between the King and Trump
The King was given a replica of a President Eisenhower Sword by Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump during the US leader's state visit to Britain.
The gift was described by Buckingham Palace officials as a symbol of the "historical partnership that was critical to winning World War Two". They said the sword also "symbolises the enduring values and cooperative spirit that continues to define the relationship between the United States and Great Britain".
