embroidered in gold in the lower right canton
Correction

In flag terminology, a “canton” is the top inner (upper-hoist) quarter of a flag, so it cannot be in the lower right.

Full reasoning
In vexillology, **“canton” has a specific positional meaning**: it is the *top inner quarter* of a flag (i.e., the upper corner nearest the flagstaff/hoist). So the post’s wording **“lower right canton”** is internally contradictory as a matter of definition: the lower-right area is the *fly* end (and lower), not the upper-hoist quarter. This doesn’t by itself prove where the Saudi Royal Standard’s emblem is placed (that’s a separate question); it shows that describing any element as being in the **“lower right canton”** is terminologically incorrect. A correct phrasing would be something like “lower right corner” or “lower fly,” depending on intended meaning.
