	00:37, 6 September 2012	1,160 × 1,300 (357 KB)	FleetCommand	Okay, Wikipedia says Coat of Arms of the Holy See has the gold key in ''bend'' and the silver key in ''bend sinister''. (It is the opposite for the Coat of Arms of the Vatican City.) So, here it is. Please don't mind me. Proceed with your edit warring.
	22:16, 5 September 2012	1,160 × 1,300 (253 KB)	Fry1989	official sources all agree the silver key bend up to the left and gold key bends up to the right
