in Czech). Flag is similar as flag of Reuss

of Kop�ivnice too (www.koprivnice.cz)
(only part of COA!). Flag adopted 15 Jul 1993.

from the Koprivnice website.
The main element is the "President" car, the first one built on Austrian
territory - escutcheon with nettle-leaf (realistic, non-heraldic) - a canting
element: kop�iva (German: Nessel) means "nettle".
