British Virgin Islands

From www.bvi.gov.vg:
"The Badge of the British Virgin Islands comprises a green shield charged with twelve golden oil lamps with red flames and a female figure, St. Ursula, patron saint of the British Virgin Islands attired in white and wearing sandals, carrying one of those lamps."
Gvido Pētersons, 7 May 2003

Note the coat of arms used on flags is slightly different, the motto is written with black letters.

Description of coat of arms:
The coat of arms depicts Saint Ursula framed by eleven oil lamps, which represent the eleven thousand virgins after whom the Virgin Islands were named. Beneath Saint Ursula is a scroll that reads, in Latin, “Vigilate” (Be Watchful). The wreath, an embellished garland of two green branches tied in the centre with a blue bow surrounds them both. The Territorial Badge was officially adopted on 15th November, 1960.
