No matter how you live or die, make sure you depart like a KING who deserves the royal departure more than the King of Pop, Michael Jackson himself. Jackson will be laid to rest in a $25,000, solid bronze, 14-karat gold plated custom casket that has been ordered from Batesville Casket Company. This gold casket is called The Promethean and features a dark blue velvet interior and a hand-polished mirror finish. The only way to make this casket more extravagant would be to add some diamond bling for the King of Pop. The same solid bronze casket has been used to bury James Brown. Staples Center will be the site of the public memorial service on Tuesday for Michael Jackson
