Formally, it is "argent the Chinese character 'Ben' sable," mantled by "an annulet azure fimbriated or bearing the words 'Regipäts Talossán Kingdom * 26.12.1979 *' Or," and topped with "a royal crown proper."
Fully Adorned Arms
The fully adorned arms of the Kingdom are also found used as the Greater State Seal, as a mark seen exclusively on documents or proclamations issued directly by the King.
In this manifestation, the unadorned coat of arms is supported by two squirrels standing upon a ribbon among dandelion fronds and bearing the national motto of "A Man's Room Is His Kingdom", in Finnish. It is formally described as "two Talossan squirrels proper standing upon a ribbon argent fimbriated at the chief vert and at the base gules bearing the motto Miehen Huone on Hänen Valtakuntansa ('A Man's Room Is His Kingdom')"
History
The national coat of arms has gone through a long series of variations over the years, some of which are recounted in King Ben's 1992 pamphlet, Clashing Symbols.
