These are two variations of the Skaggs Family Crest that I prefer. I found more while doing internet research but the key elements that remain consistent in all the crests I found are:

• A miniature crest of blue and gold, worn attached to the skull of the helmet.

• A wreath of twisted silk in the colors of blue and gold that fits tightly around the dome of the helmet.

• A mantle of blue and gold attached to the helmet under the wreath

• A steel helmet in profile with the position of the visor closed, which meant that the Skaggs ancestor was an esquire or private gentleman.

• A shield that displays the Skaggs coat of arms in blue and gold with a charged lion on the upper half.

• The Skaggs name seems to have replaced a motto.
