Accuracy?[edit]

There are no any source about this coat of arms. The uploader indicated that he just only creade a "derivative work" of other three files. How and why this sign of nation can be used without any verify? --minhhuy (talk) 04:48, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This image was drawn by Christian Siemer [1] according to a description based in the German book Flaggen-Wappen-Daten by Karl-Heinz Hesmer (1947-2013). Short before his death I asked him for the depiction he used for his description. He told me then that this image is not 100 per cent accurate, but did not provide me further details. He died suddenly before I asked him about further details. Since then, I know that this image is not fictional, but also not really correct. So I wait for better source.--Antemister (talk) 09:28, 29 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There are no other reliable sources to support the description provided by Karl-Heinz Hesmer. There are also some articles in Vietnamese disputing this claim. I think it is most likely that the PRG will adopt the coat of arms of the National Liberation Front here, which also closely resembles their flag. --Nguyen.asia.18 (talk) 16:47, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
