Coat of arms history

In Ledebur Adelslexikon der Prussischen Monarchy (1856) the coat of arms of the Sandersleben shows an upright ploughshare.

Kneschke describes the coat of arms in his New General German Adels Lexicon (1868) In blue, or in Roth, a pointed, upright, silver-colored sickle with a hollow handle, in which the handle or the shaft is attached. There is a round hole in the middle of the blade. The Hanoverian scholars adverts call the coat of arms a sixth and complain that some consider the coat of arms to be a ploughshare, since in olden times the plowshares would not have been pointed, but round. The Siebmachersche Blasonierung called coats of arms as the Sanderslebensche scratching. The blue shield is accepted according to a document from 1409 in the former royal provincial archive in Magdeburg . On a family tree from 1780, submitted to the royal court marshal in Dresden , the shield is red, as is the seal of the Saxon line.

According to the yearbook of the German nobility (1899), an older coat of arms in silver shows a red plow iron. On the helmet with the red and silver helmet covers, a fallen silver plow iron between two silver buffalo horns.
