Scott Family Crest or Seal
We have a ring with a Scott Family Crest on it but I have been unable to find where in Scotland it and my Irish ancestors originated from before about 1721.
The Crest is described thus - A dexter hand holding a lance, all proper: a Motto - "I am Ready and" and"Or, on a band azure, a mullet pierced between two crescents of the first, all within a bordure of the second"
This is the description I would give it - a small shield within a shield surmounted by a head in armour, looking to the left with an arm above, holding a lance which is also pointing to the left.Across the inner shield is a band going from top left to bottom right with two crescents between which is a 5 pointed star with a hole in the centre!!
I would be extremely grateful for any help anyone could give.

If anyone has any ideas, I can send a picture of a drawing of it and a picture of the seal.
