As announced, this one is one more of those not yet officialised: At the recently defunct HiperGlobal website, used to show for this CoA (with the most typical scroll, as always) an image only, with no accompanying text, no flag nor banner information, as usual, but also no blazon nor even a date for a preliminary establishment by the CHAAP — implying that
this coat of arms is completely unofficial.
