The Plantagenets produced 14 kings who sat on the throne of England and six of those individuals came from the Plantagenet cadet houses in England: House of York and House of Lancaster.

The White Falcon is depicted twice in the design. There is a large falcon supporting a heraldic shield, upon which there is a second falcon clutching an open fetterlock.
