Currently the diamond is set in the Crown of Queen Elizabeth and is on display at the Tower Of London.The Kohinoor moved through various dynasties and kings in India and Persia before it reached the Queen. It belonged to various Hindu, Mughal, Afghan and Sikh rulers.It is believed that the Koh-i-Noor diamond carries with it a curse which has caused harm to men but not to women.

Explanation:

The Koh-i-Noor (/ˌkoʊɪˈnʊər/; lit. "Mountain of light"), also spelt Kohinoor and Koh-i-Nur, is one of the largest cut diamonds in the world, weighing 105.6 carats (21.12 g). ... Originally, the stone was of a similar cut to other Mughal-era diamonds, like the Darya-i-Noor, which are now in the Iranian Crown Jewels.The Persian general Nadir Shah went to India in 1739. He wanted to conquer the throne, which had been weakened during the reign of Sultan Mahamad. The Sultan lost the decisive battle and had to surrender to Nadir. It was him the one that gave the diamond its current name, Koh-i-noor meaning “Mountain of light”.
