I would like to know what the expression:

"From your coat of
arms" means.

Thanks,

Jack

"From your coat of arms" means.
Need more context, but a "coat of arms" is like a "family crest" or
ancestral shield -- "arms" as in "armory", not legs & arms.

Many European countries had traditional coats of arms for royal and
military-leader families.

Thank you very much for your explanation.
The family crest is what i was looking for.
