Coat of arms of Egypt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Egyptian coat of arms is a golden eagle looking toward the left. The symbol dates from the time of Saladin.

On the pedestal on which the "Eagle of Saladin" stands appears in Arabic script the national name Gumhuriyat Misr al-Arabiya ("Arab Republic of Egypt"). The eagle carries on its breast a shield with the flag's colors — but with a vertical instead of a horizontal configuration. During the union with Syria in the United Arab Republic (1958-1961) and until 1971, the eagle carried two stars in this place. Between 1972 and 1984 the eagle was replaced by the golden hawk of Qureish, as part of the symbolism of the Federation of Arab Republics.
