Pallium: The Emeriti and the Death

[KnightOfSPUD]

I’ve been wondering, since I have seen Metropolitan Emeriti not wearing pallia, and the Pope endows the pallium on the retired Archbishop’s sucessor, what happens to the pallium of the Archbishop emeritus?

And if an Archbishop dies in office, does he wear the pallium in the casket?

Sorry for the morbid title

Each Metropolitan receives his own. He receives one actually for each metropolitan see to which he is named. Thus both Cardinal Nichols of the UK and Cardinal Dolan of the US have two. (Archbishop of Birmingham and then Archbishop of Westminster in the former case, Archbishop of Milwaukee and then Archbishop of New York City in the latter case). An emeritus would not wear it since he is, in fact, emeritus. A Metropolitan is buried wearing the pallium, whether he dies in office or not.
