    I believe the total cost is north of $1,000 these days.

    It might be worthwhile to look at the website of the American Heraldry Society for lots of information on the granting of arms and on the assumption of arms. http://www.americanheraldry.org/

    Hi, Ethan –
    the tariffs of the Bureau of Heraldry can be found at: http://www.national.archives.gov.za/...and%202011.pdf
    The fee for registering a shield and crest comes to R5 060, which at today’s rates is $515.70. So much for “north of $1,000”.
    The staff at the bureau are very professional, and provide expert advice with regard to your preferences.
    As a registered armiger I can recommend them wholeheartedly.
    Regards,
    Mike
