The Kossuth Coat of Arms is a unique rendition of Hungary's historical national coat of arms, notably lacking the Holy Crown. Its shape differs from the standard straight-sided shield, featuring inwardly curved edges at the top and sides, forming a distinctive Hungarian shield shape. On the left side, against a red backdrop, there's a green triple hill topped with a golden crown, beneath which a white apostolic double cross is displayed. The right side is divided into red and silver "Árpád stripes," cut seven times. Introduced after the dethronement of the Habsburgs on April 14, 1849, and the declaration of independence on April 19, it is closely associated with Lajos Kossuth. Henceforth, the Hungarian army adopted it for their flags. The Ministry of Finance, under Kossuth's leadership, adopted the modified middle coat of arms in 1848, representing Hungary, Croatia, Slavonia, and Transylvania under the Hungarian government's authority at the time.
