The Coat of Arms of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was the symbol of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, representing the union of the Kingdom of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania. It combined their previously separate coats of arms:

Coat of arms of Poland, the White Eagle
Coat of arms of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, the Knight/the Chase (Vytis, Pahonia)

During the January Uprising a similar coat of arms was proposed for the restored Commonwealth, with Archangel Michael, the coat of arms of Ukraine added as the third element. However, it was never officially introduced.
