About Montana |

Under the word "Montana", on a blue field, is the state
seal. The seal shows some of Montana's beautiful scenery and tells
what people were doing in pioneer times. The pick, shovel and plow
represent mining and farming. In the background a sun rises over
mountains, forests and the Great Falls of the Missouri river. A
ribbon contains the state motto "Gold and Silver". |
