The canton Schaffhausen probably already used arms in the early 14<sup>th</sup> century, but the oldest known image dates from 1396. The arms are derived from the banner of the city, which showed a ram. In 1512 the arms were clearly described for the first time, as being gold with a black ram. The city Schaffhausen used the ram coming from a city gate, and both images have also been used for the whole canton during the centuries. | The canton Schaffhausen probably already used arms in the early 14<sup>th</sup> century, but the oldest known image dates from 1396.
