The Spain’s Coat of Arms is a medieval insignia which signifies the dynasty of Spain. The current coat of arms for the monarch was adopted in 2014. Former rulers of Castile-León, Aragon, and Navarre are represented in the arms.
The Spanish monarch’s arms used to be much more complicated than they are now, displaying the arms of the empire’s different states. A simpler version of these arms, known as the lesser arms,
was also used; the lesser arms were a separate group of arms within the full arms’ core.
The Spanish royal coat of arms is prominently displayed in the Murillo Velarde 1734 Map’s upper-middle section.
