St John Fusiliers crown?
My silly badge question of the day: while working on a pet project, I noticed that the St John Fusiliers (Maz. M96) has a distinct Queen's Crown-looking crown over the central City of St John coat of arms, and not a King's Crown (despite Mazeas' sketch to the contrary).
What gives with this? An oversight? Some historic connection to the St. Edward crown that would have overridden heraldric principle?
The City of Calgary coat of arms swapped the surmounting crown for the appropriate monarch, so wouldn't the City of St John coat of arms fall under the same rules?
Anyway, I guess give the Maz sketch, that's another one for the Mazeas error corrections list.
