From <www.provincia.ancona.it>:
"The coat of arms of the Province of Ancona - The Province
of Ancona has inherited its symbol from the past; the image
portrays a bent arm - Ankòn, in Greek, which refers to the
morphology of the coastline and, precisely, to the point where
the Doric city is situated. This image was taken from a bronze
coin of IV century, put into circulation by the Syracusans,
founders of Ancona."
