Description
The Great Seal of the State of West Virginia was adopted in 1863. The center of the seal contains a boulder that has been inscribed June 20, 1863, the date West Virginia became a state. In front of the boulder lie two crossed rifles and a liberty cap to state the state's importance of fighting for liberty. The two men on either side of the boulder represent agriculture and industry. On the left stands a farmer with an ax and plow before a cornstalk. On the other side stands a miner with a pickax, and behind him an anvil and sledge hammer. The outer ring contains the Text State of West Virginia, and the state's motto "Montani Semper Liberi", Mountaineers are Always Free. The state nickname is The Mountain State. There is also a reverse of the seal, and a variant of it is the official seal of the Governor.
