The coat of arms of the [city](https://www.worldhistory.org/city/) of Sheffield, [England](https://www.worldhistory.org/disambiguation/england/), granted in 1875. A representation of [Thor](https://www.worldhistory.org/Thor/) stands on the left and [Vulcan](https://www.worldhistory.org/Vulcan/) on the right, indicating the city's heritage as a world-famous steel manufacturer.
