BENONI A Golden Anniversary for a Golden City Notes on the BENONI Coat of Arms The BENONI coat of arms, commissioned in 1937 was drawn up by the College of Heralds in England and registered with South African Bureau of Heraldry in Pretoria in 1966. The Motto Auspicium Melioris Aevi means A pledge for better times. The Four Farms or fonteins , (Rietfontein, Vlakfontein, Modderfontein and Kleinfontein) are immortalized by the four silver and blue roundels (or bezants in heraldic terms with the colours denoting fountains in heraldry) in the border of the shield whilst the four bezants of gold symbolize the gold-mining industry. The triple castle in the centre is derived from the arms of the town of Bedford in England of Sir George Farrar s origins whilst the triple escallops occur in the Duke of Bedford s arms.
