TRNC Coat of Arms
The Coat of Arms of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus are styled closely on the arms of the Republic of Cyprus, except that the arms are not colored and that the '1960' was removed from the shield underneath the dove. In addition, a depiction of the Turkish star and crescent emblem is placed over the shield with the year '1983' added. The year is in reference to the Declaration of Independence of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Image File history File links Northern_Cyprus_coa. ...
