Brig Posted December 1, 2018 Share #1 Posted December 1, 2018 This came out of Sweden, but I can't seem to ID it. Price was right and I liked the look of it so I impulse purchased. Resembles a military crest, but lots of towns also have their own seals in Scandinavian countries, so I'm not sure. Either way, I couldn't find this crest in searches. Anyone know what it's for?

Proud Kraut Posted December 1, 2018 Share #2 Posted December 1, 2018 Reminds me of the coat of arms of Tromso, a city in northern Norway. Maybe this one crossed the border to Sweden once... https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Coat_of_arms_of_Troms%C3%B8.svg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brig Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share #3 Posted December 1, 2018 I think the crowns are far too different to represent the same thing. I have seen reindeer on city, family and military crests while googling, but not this particular one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorBn Posted December 5, 2018 Share #4 Posted December 5, 2018 A friend of mine found this picture on the Swedish on-line auction Tradera. No other information, but I'm starting to lean towards Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brig Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share #5 Posted December 5, 2018 Yup...that looks like the same crest...now just to figure out if it's a unit crest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
