since 1909
The badge of the British Leeward Islands was adopted in the 1870s.
The Royal arms on the top of the badge was a non-classical design.
A coat of arms consisting of five badges was adopted in 1909. The five badges represent the five "provinces" of the Leeward Islands: Antigua and Barbuda top left, Dominica top right, Montserrat bottom left, British Virgin Islands bottom right. In the centre, were two badges joined together, representing Saint Christopher-Nevis-Anguilla. On the left is Saint Christopher and on the right is Nevis, while Anguilla is missing but can be found in the flag.
