It does not look like a Ukrainian COA. It looks one of the towns of the former Ryazan vice-royalty, Russia - see commons:Category:Coats_of_arms_of_cities_and_villages_of_Ryazan_Region. The towns of the southern frontier of the former governorate are now not in Ryazan Oblast but in Lipetsk Oblast, Voronezh Oblast etc. and some were abandoned or downgraded to villages. The upper half (Ryazan ) is easily identifiable, although the sword is curved, not straight as it should be (there are two options for this part - either sword, sheath and hat in upper half, or just the hat in a small escutcheon like here). Bottom half - which identifies the town - ??? East of Borschov 19:15, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Got it: It's Yegoryevsk, Moscow oblast. Contemporary COA has only the dragon in red field, but the historical COA was topped with the symbols of Ryazan (see here [1].). East of Borschov 19:30, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
