Can anybody help me, I apologise for the poorest of image size!

Thanks to anybody who could point me in the right direction too.

Don’t see any typeface. If there is one, you surely get better answers in the Type-ID-board.

Oops, the above link to the TypeID-board seems to be broken.

Rainer, I think he wants to know what the thingy stands for/represents.

This site has the most gawd-awful design, but they claim to be heraldry experts, not designers. They might be able to help

This is a matter of heraldry, not of typography.
When you know where the dipiction comes from (country) you shall search for heraldic institutions of that area. There are lots of bulky registers to search.
