The coat of arms of Saint Lucia was adopted on 8 January 1979 by a royal warrant of Queen Elizabeth II. Following her death in September 2022, it was still used by her son who become King Charles III, when it was titled following his coronation in 2023 as the King of Saint Lucia.[1] The national motto (the land, the people, the light) is found at the bottom.
