* The Loudoun County Seal is a genuine coat-of-arms devised
in 1968 by the House of Heralds in London.
Based on the coat-of-arms of the Earl of Loudoun,
for whom the county was named, it was the first official
seal accorded to an American county. The
coat-of-arms, attendant flag, and a 300-poundstone from Loudoun Castle in
Scotland were presented to the County by the Countess of Loudoun and the
Queen's representative,
the Rouge Dragon, in a ceremony never before held
in the United States. In heraldic language the arms are "Gyronny ermine
and gules with fordure embattled vert gutly argent."
