Identify the design before choosing its number.
Describe the requested coat of arms in a few words: a red eagle against a light background. This distinguishes it from a shield divided into several fields or one showing several lions. In this catalogue graphic, the matching design is labelled 1.
An eagle does not automatically stand for Germany as a whole. The federal eagle is black on gold. Brandenburg instead uses a red eagle on silver. Look for the full colour combination rather than merely for a bird.
The other three answers
The other pictures lack the single red eagle on the light shield.
2
Image 2 combines a cross, a wheel and a lion beneath a crown. It is not the requested single-eagle design.
3
Image 3 has four fields containing different symbols. Brandenburg’s coat of arms instead shows a red eagle on a uniformly light shield.
4
Image 4 shows three black lions on gold. Both the animal and the colours differ from the red eagle on silver.
The present state coat of arms is a specific design.
The state parliament explains that the present coat of arms omits older additions such as an electoral cap, sword, sceptre and breast shield. Historical eagle images may therefore look different. This question concerns the present design shown in the existing question bank.
The number 1 only labels the image within this illustration. It is not part of the coat of arms. The catalogue graphic remains unchanged here; the accompanying AI images are merely fictional study motifs.
