It features a gold-coloured Hawk of Quraish faced to the left (dexter) with an Arabic shield in the centre inscribed with the official flag and two wheat stalks symbolising fertility and life. The eagle holds in its claws a ribbon inscribed in Modern Arabic script that is titled "Syrian Arab Republic".

Subhi Barakat
Subhi Bey Barakat al-Khalidi (; ; 1889–1939) was a Turkish-born Syrian politician who served as the first president of Syria from 1922 until his resignation in 1925. He served during the French Mandate where the French controlled the country. He also served as the fourth prime minister during his tenure as president. Part of the reason the French supported his candidacy as president of the Syrian Federation was because as neither a native of Damascus nor a very strong Arabic speaker ( Turkish was his mother tongue), he did not seem to pose a nationalist threat to French rule. Initially, he was a partner of Ibrahim Hanano in his revolt.
