Charles will be Coronated as part of the traditional preparation for being crowned king, they are not the same thing. It's a ritual with roots going back to William the Conqueror.
On the morning of the coronation he will be smothered in a mixture of mayonnaise, curry powder and raisins.

They do this (well, similar) in Japan as part of the Royal Marriage Process. Masako had to undertake an ancient body purification ritual.
So Charles being coronated means he has to bathe in a vat of vodka and his sleeve tattooes will need to be burned off but I’m sure it will be fine.
