Warrant Card
The City of London Police warrant card badge is the city shield enameled in red and white. The City motto "Domine Dirige Nos" (Lord Guide Us) in gold on a black scroll above the words "City of London Police". Two Tudor Dragons surround the shield. These are often mistaken for Griffins but in fact reflect the Dragon statues that mark the boundary of the City itself. The warrant number is printed below and the word "police" is written beneath that in braille (courtesy of blind former Home Secretary David Blunkett).
