lion

[edit]

the lion is wrong, it is suppose to be double queued. Tinynanorobots (talk) 03:16, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Crest

[edit]

The horns on the crest symbolising Hesse is somewhat odd. The horns are "Büffelhörner" and they only have one opening each. If you need to consult further drawings of them, try searching for this term or the equivalent Danish term: "vesselhorn". For an example, see: http://finnholbek.dk/genealogy/showmedia.php?mediaID=25&medialinkID=5158 which shows the same heraldic feature in the arms of a Danish noble family). You might also find the arms of Carinthia useful for comparison. [1] Valentinian T / C 13:28, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
