As of my last update in October 2023, Australia has not adopted a new coat of arms. The current coat of arms, which was granted by King Edward VII in 1908, features a shield supported by a kangaroo and an emu, symbolizing Australia’s unique wildlife. The coat of arms also displays symbols representing the six states of Australia and includes a banner with the word “Australia.”
While discussions about the coat of arms and its symbolism do arise periodically, such debates have not led to any formal changes or proposals for a new design. The coat of arms holds significant historical and cultural value, representing the identity and heritage of Australia. If any updates or changes are initiated regarding the coat of arms, they would likely be accompanied by a formal announcement from the government or relevant authorities.
