blazon[edit]
| “ | The blazon of the municipal coat of arms is Gules Moon increscent Or. | ” |
This appears to be a Slavic amateur's guess at the English blazon, and it's wrong; an increscent (waxing moon) would have the horns to dexter (viewer's left). But I don't know what to call this charge, which I haven't seen before. —Tamfang (talk) 06:23, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
de.wiki gives the blazon In rot eine liegende gelbe Mondsichel. I guess liegende means lying down, and Mondsichel (moon-sickle) means crescent. I wonder, does German heraldry use the more abstract crescent? Can't recall an example offhand. —Tamfang (talk) 21:36, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
