The coat of arms of the Republic of Serbia (Serbian: грб Републике Србије / grb Republike Srbije) is the coat of arms determined by the Law on the Coat of Arms of the Kingdom of Serbia of June 16, 1882.[1] It was officially readopted by the National Assembly in 2004 and later slightly redesigned in 2010.[2] The coat of arms consists of two main heraldic symbols which represent the national identity of the Serbian people across the centuries, the Serbian eagle (a silver[3] double-headed eagle adopted from the Nemanjić dynasty) and the Serbian cross (or cross with firesteels).[4][5]
