Description of the design
Naval crown established in 1918.
Naval crown established in 1984.
The naval crown can be compared to the imperial chrysanthemum emblem of the army that supported Imperial japan in the Meiji era.
It is something necessary for a ship to be identified as the queen's.
The oldest identifiable use was in the 17th century as it can be seen in the murals of St Nicolas Church.
By the time of the napoleonic wars it was used by naval armys.
On the motif can be seen an entire and two split back views of ship, also two sails between these.
The design of the badge of the naval crown changed across the times.
From 1971 up the coloring of the jewel type was omitted.
The shape also changed starting 1984.
