Thanks to everyone who's commented on this.
As the Duchy of Cornwall seems to be an exception to the general rule in many areas, I was unsure whether the ownership of coal and gas reserves under Duchy land passed to the Duchy (as an arm of the state) following nationalisation, rather than directly to the Crown as in the rest of the country.
I shall report back to the list if I can find a definite answer.
