Queen Elizabeth II visited the Bank of England on Thursday. While there, she took some time to tour the bank’s precious metal reserves, including 4,600 tons of gold worth some £197 billion (USD$315 billion).

We’ll publish any captions that make us laugh. This submission, from Twitter user @williambanzai7, is our current leader:
