  1. If you are entitled to a coat of arms, the only way you can come up with a legitimate one is to send your family tree to the heraldry authority of the country from which it was issued.

    Peddlers selling coats of arms on the internet, at shopping mallls, at airports, in magzines frequently are selling valid coat of arms but what isn't valid is they sell them like they belong to everyone with a particular surname and they don't.  Coats of arms were and are granted to an individual man and are passed down through the direct legitimate male line of descent.  

    Actually, there might have been more than one man named Currie, not all necessarily related that were granted a coat of arms, all different. No one peddler that sells them will have all of them. They don't  need to in order to sell t the gullible.  The only time they will have more than one is if more than one man with the same surname from different national origins were granted one. Then they will have one of each and there might have been more.  

    They frequently have a small disclaimer in fine print.  These peddlers are the biggest scammers around.  Some might give me thumbs down because they are in the business or in the pocket of those type of businesses.

    I'm a McCurrie... the Irish equivalent

  3. Try Burke's Peerage online. If you cannot find anything through that website, try Electric Scotland and follow the links that will show the particular Clans as well as Coat of Arms.  However, be careful in your search for your family Coat of Arms, as a TRUE Coat of Arms and standard originated before the 1700's in Great Britain and Europe. Most  CofA after a certain time period were created by families, not necessarily by the dictates of the monarchies.

  4. Currie is a Scottish name and regarded as part of the Clan Chattan and associated with Clan McPherson . This web site contains a crest which is applicable to the name Currie :
