List of personal coats of arms of presidents of the United States

Add article description

Many United States presidents have borne a coat of arms; largely through inheritance, assumption, or grants from foreign heraldic authorities. One, Dwight Eisenhower, received his upon becoming a Knight of the Order of the Elephant of Denmark.[1] The president of the United States, as a position, uses the seal of the president of the United States as a coat of arms, but this is a coat of arms of office, not a personal coat of arms.
