Great Seal of North Dakota
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
The Great Seal of North Dakota is the official seal of the state of North Dakota.
As with many state symbols the Great Seal has been subject to wide interpretation as the state has done little to standardize the design. The image used by Biocrawler [1] (http://discovernd.com/images/seal.jpg) comes from the state's website.
