- Description:
- A coat of arms in the center of a circle, divided into two main horizontal portions, with a horse and two crowns featured in the upper half; a diagonal slash, another smaller crest, and several ermine spots throughout. Surrounding this is the phrase Nec Aspera Terrent. The circle itself is bordered by a wreath of oak laves, and features a knight's helmet at the helm. The entire design is surrounded by elaborate mantling, and above features an eagle rising out of a battlement on the left-hand side, and a broken but leaved oak tree at center of a crown on the right. Below, with a large cross-shaped medal in its lower center, is a banner featuring the motto Ob Patriam Vulnera Passi.
