The arms of the Holy See, blazoned as follows: Gules, two keys in saltire or and argent, interlaced in the rings or, beneath a tiara argent, crowned or. This achievement is the only one I've found that conforms precisely to the blazon and was created by Bruno Bernard Heim, herald for John XXIII and John Paul I. It was taken from his book Heraldry in the Catholic Church: Its Origins, Customs, and Laws, and I claim its use is fair use.
