The joined coat of arms of a married couple, of Count Josip Kazimir Draskovic and Baroness Suzana Malatinski, is placed in a joint oval blue shield that contains: on the right the Draskovic family coat of arms (squared: in the first and fourth quartering in red a crowned griffin holding a ball in his paw rising from a green triple-peaked hill, the second and third quartering in gold has a spread-winged eagle), on the left the Malatinski family coat of arms (in blue a golden sheaf of wheat, a cockerel with a golden ring in its beak at the top, a golden star to the right, a young moon to the left). The two shields are joined by a single crown. The shields are surrounded by an inscription in two lines: DEI AUXILIO FELICES HO(C E)XIGUUM VERAE PIAECUE GRATITUDINIS / POSUERE SIGNUM.
