Below, I added the coat of arms of my fraternity association that dates back to the mid 19th century when the first two chapters signed the aggreement to form an association: Cartell of Catholic German Fraternities (which would be the approximate equivalent of ypor nationals/internationals.

That is truely gorgeous! I noticed the figure wears a leather helmet that looks like feudal Germany. I know the black eagle has been a German symbol for hundres of years. Do you have four colors?(red,gold,green,white). I think all American fraternities have only two colors. Congratulations, yours is an exceptionally beautiful crest.
