[edit] The Coat of Arms is not in the flag

The flag is blue and white, no coat of arms.

That's the national flag, coat of arms appears in the state flag, as is correctly stated in the article. SGJ 10:01, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Coat of Arms of the Grand Duchy of Finland

The image in the article is not quite appropriate. It is only a part of the Grand Duchy's coat of arms. I will later upload both the photograph of the old coat of arms from the book of Alexander Lakier, founder of Russian heraldry. It must have the typical Imperial Russian eagle, and on the shield - a coat of arms with lion, but slightly different.
