"The state coat of arms is on a central shield, surmounted by a stag's head crest. A word "VERMONT" lies above, and a ribbon with the state motto and 13 stars is below. The sky of shield is lined and there are six tiers of branches perpendicular to the pine at the device center. The stag head crest is without a well-defined support wreath".
