For her funeral she was in a lead coffin (covered in purple velvet and a life-like effigy). But she must have had a double coffin (a coffin inside a coffin) because in the 1800's when her tomb was opened it was reported she had a wooden coffin so her wooden coffin must have been inside the lead one, although I cannot confirm this, its only an assumption. its also possible that she had a lead coffin for the funeral and her body was then moved to a wood one later. point being, she had one lead one, and one wood one.
