Same issue in my game as well, even after clearing my gfx/flags folder. In fact I'm seeing a lot of new holdings with black flags, such as ones in the new provinces carved out of York, etc.

Additionally, I donno if this is correct, but I think Somerset and Wessex have their CoA's reversed. The blue shield with the gold is the Wessex Coat of Arms, but is applied to the duchy of Somerset, and the White shield and red dragon is Somersets, but is applied to Wessex. Unless that is historically accurate for some reason, or there's something broke about my game (which is possible, I have a personal mod, but all of that id disabled of course for Holy Fury)

The HRE also has many of these. Just with a cursory look you can see black shields in these counties:

Cologne
Metz
Verden
Bremen
Havelberg
Brandenburg
Werben
Meissen
Pilsen
Passau
Krain
Krems
Trient
Saluzzo

Or Csanad in Hungary. Spain also has some. Probably a lot of places where holdings were changed

Ditto,also with some dynasties this is much more rare but for example the Hugonids,Maoro at game start have a completely black COA and also a dynasty that was awarded to a lowborn character I granted a landed title (Montferrat) got a black COA

Thank you for your report!

There is a known issue where randomly generated CoA's may be black if you don't own the PDXCON dlc. It has already been fixed internally and this fix will be in the next patch :)

The what ??

What is that DLC ?

*later*
Ah, found the answer. Now that should be rare..
It's a cosmetic DLC containing some dynasty shield emblems, which was given to certain PDXCon 2018 attendees. As far as I know, there is currently no plan to make that more widely available.

Having the same problem in the listed counties! France and England have a lot of these in their holdings.

I don't think it's just random CoAs, been trying an ironman Armenia old gods start and the Pahlavuni dynasty consistently gets a black shield on three re-starts, cleared all the gfx etc. As I recall they used to have a custom CoA that was the same for any game.
