Story:

The motto says in Latin "Hoc signum vere Regum est" (This is the true signal of the kings). Lima was named by the Spanish conquerors as the King's City. The letters I and K stand for the Spanish Queen Johanna and King Carlos (Karolus). The two-headed eagle is the Spanish (Habsburg) imperial eagle.
