The Coat of Arms of Berdyansk is based on a similar version adopted in 1844. It features a shield per fess with azure and vert. In the upper part is an azure covered wagon and a sable plough which signify the half-nomad life of the Nagaysky settlers in the district. In the lower part is a sable anchor that symbolizes the port and the sea. The shield is crowned with an argent mauerkrone with three embattlements, on top of two or anchors connected by the gules ribbon". [1]
