Coat of Arms: San Marino's coat of arms consists of a blue shield surmounted by a  crown symbolizing sovereignty.
Within the blue shield are three green mountains representing the peaks of Monte Titano, and three towers representing the citadels of San Marino (La Guaita, La Cesta and La Montale).
Surrounding the crown and shield are branches of oak and laurel, which symbolize stability and defense.
