Will start looking into the Toison d'Or tomorrow, was busy these past two days by reviewing the site for some updates...there is no hurry. :) Finellach (talk) 13:31, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

One question. Regarding this CoA...what exactly is wrong with it or rather what is wrong with the eagle? And if you don't mind what is the source for it? I've tried looking around to see how it should look to figure out what you are asking to be corrected but I just cannot find this variant. All I could find was this. So what is going on? :S Finellach (talk) 17:43, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

Hmm thats interesting. The difference between these variants is quite big, don't know what to make of it. As for Cinque Ports, sadly no...there is a book called Roll of the Constables of Dover Castle and Lord Wardens of the Cinque Ports from 1627 by John Philipot but I couldn't find an online version of it. It lists about 75 arms of various Lord Wardens. Besdies few pages that are out there "for preview" I had no general insight in it so I had to manage by looking for alternative sources and so on. I've also found a few photos of the room where they had the arms of Lord Wardens so in a strange manner I was looking at those as well and trying to decipher which CoA belongs to which person. In general I've used several sources...mainly Burke's book on heraldry, some armorials, etc. So it's a mish-mash. Wish I could have a complete insight into John Philipot's book though.
