I'm also seeing this, seems to happen to the randomly generated COAs only.

It also happens to a lot of dynasties. In ALL cases where I checked them with the customizer, these dynasties have an invalid emblem set whereas everything else appears to be valid:

Capture.JPG
Notice it says 33/31 emblems. I have seen higher numbers as well, the highest I can recall was 46/31.

The shield remains black even if any of the options are changed UNLESS the Style is changed (from Catholic to Cathar etc.). I can then switch back to Catholic (or whatever the original was) and the correct number of emblems will be shown, and the shield will be drawn.

I can only assume something is going wrong during the initial game load that sets these invalid emblems on both dynasties and baronies.
