Talk:Coffin (surname)

Untitled
I am fairly certain, indeed extremely confident, almost definitely positive, that the heraldry depicted here is incorrect. The proper description for Coffin arms includes "crosses crosslet," a specific design which differs from the crosses depicted on this page. These crosses are "botonny" ou croix botonées en Francais. The proper Coffin crosses are to be crosslet, in which there are 90-degree bars across each arm near its end. A depiction of the proper crosses can be seen here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Coffin3a.svg. Unless someone can correct me with authoritative sources, I will soon change this seemingly incorrect heraldry if nobody else does. Olorin3k (talk) 21:04, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
