Not in so many words. They show the image with one over two as the correct coat of arms, but... The old one was two over one and occasionally you'll find in various places two over one. The Fraternity used to sell blankets with the Coat of Arms and the Key and on *that* it was two over one. Also, at least when I was at our National Office 15 years ago, the plaster casting of the coat of arms beside the front door was two over one... I need to get access to some of the older fraternity magazines after the change from old to new.
Also, both two over one and one over two would fulfill the description of the meaning of that fraternal element in the ritual.
As for Butterfield's book, Google has snippets at
