New York State Seal Plaque: New York State Seal Plaque: The Great Seal of New York was first established in 1777. In 1882 a final law was adopted describing the seal as designed in 1778. New York's seal features the state's official Coat of Arms encircled by the words "The Great Seal of the State of New York". The Seal of New York is almost the same as the flag but in a seal. The goddess Justice symbolizes freedom before the law. The goddess Liberty, who symbolizes freedom, holds a pole with a liberty cap. There is a shield between them, which has a picture of the Hudson Highland, the Sun, and two sail boats sailing on the Hudson River. Over the shield is a globe, showing the western hemisphere, and a bald eagle. Under the shield is a curving ribbon that reads New York's state motto: "Excelsior", which can be translated from Latin as "ever upwards."
