Order of the National Coat of Arms
The Order of the National Coat of Arms (Estonian: Riigivapi Teenetemärk, French: Ordre du Blason National) was instituted by Konstantin Päts on 7 October 1936 in order to commemorate 24 February 1918, the day on which Estonian independence was declared. The Order of the National Coat of Arms is bestowed only on Estonian citizens as a decoration of the highest class for services rendered to the state.
