	Ducal Standards until 1918 (Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, Germany)
		Queen Victoria's son Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, born 1844, became Duke Alfred I of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha in 1893 and died 1900 without male issue (actually his only son had died a year before).
		Anyway there was possibly no opportunity for confusion, since the lesser standard of the Duke of Saxe-Meiningen was probably adopted after Duke Charles Edward of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha adopted a new one (a square banner of the Saxon arms with a canton showing his arms as British prince) in 1900 or 1902.
		The two last reigning Dukes of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha were a son and a grandson of Queen Victoria — but they were not father and son.
