The Coat of arms of Guerrero (Spanish: Escudo de Guerrero, lit. "state shield of Guerrero") is a symbol of the Free and Sovereign State of Guerrero.
Symbolism
On a shield with an Iberian mouth, on a blue background, we have the upright figure of a Jaguar Knight who holds a wooden-coloured club in his right hand horizontally. This same knight has a shield that occupies a large space, the circle starting from the centre. The shield has an ornament made with a Greek pattern with backgrounds (from top to bottom) of red, green, violet and yellow; then starting from the base of the shield downwards, it has nine open feathers in the form of a fan, from right to left they are golden yellow, green, white, red, purple, yellow, green, purple and golden yellow.
It is a headdress with a plume made up of 11 feathers of different colours, which when viewed from right to left in order are as follows: yellow, blue, yellow, golden yellow, red, green, blue, red, green, yellow and green.
Immediately below the headdress, a golden yellow crest with a red stripe, centered horizontally and in the center, starting from the base upwards, a reed or acatl. Below the crest there is a figure curved upwards at two ends, symbol of an arrow. Below the crest and behind the arrow, a harmonious horizontal line with two symmetrical ornaments and in the center, a conical figure in red. This ornament is green at the top to make a figure fall at the end in pergolas, which simulate slats that fall to form a curve at the top, which when ascending, meets the figures that, like the previous slat, maintain the same shape to make symmetry. These are yellow and go over a red stripe to find another smaller one that curves at its bottom and then rises straight, which is green.
