From Ralf Hartemink's International Civic Arms website: The arms of Essen are unique, as they show two shields under a single coronet [not really, see Brandenburg]. The original arms, a shield with a sword, are known since 1399, but were rarely used. In 1623 the German Emperor granted the city the right to use the Imperial Eagle. Normally the shield would be divided or the original arms were placed on the eagle. This never officially happened in Essen, although sometimes both arms are combined in a single shield in books and maps. The coronet indicates the foundation of the freedom of the monastery (with the rank of Prince) in 852. The arms were granted in 1886.
