The Royal Coat of Arms is the official coat of arms of the British monarch, currently Queen Elizabeth II. These arms are used by the queen in her official capacity. The British Royal Coat of Arms was installed on the facade of the LHC building's central wing when it was constructed in 1866. Sometime after 1947, these shields were removed and dumped in the lawn outside the chamber of the chief justice. In February 2002, then LHC Chief Justice (retd) Hon'ble Mr. Justice Falak Sher realised the significance of these shields and gifted them to the Lahore Museum in addition to two marble pillars as well. However, these shields were returned to Lahore High Court on its 150th anniversary to put them on display in its own museum.
