Missouri State Seal - Color Changing Coffee Mug

The Missouri State Seal is the official emblem representing the U.S. state of Missouri. Adopted on February 10, 1925, it symbolizes the state's history, geography, and characteristics. The seal features a female figure, personifying the Mississippi River, standing on a rock that represents the Ozark Plateau. She is holding two sheaves of wheat and a scroll inscribed with the state motto: "Salus Populi Suprema Lex Esto" (The Welfare of the People Shall Be the Highest Law). The scene is surrounded by the state's coat of arms, featuring a grizzly bear, a bison, and a red and white striped shield, all representing Missouri's natural resources. Beneath the main image, there are two scrolls, one inscribed with the date of Missouri's admission into the Union (August 10, 1821) and the other listing the state's nicknames: "The Show-Me State" and "The Cave State." The Missouri State Seal serves as a symbol of the state's proud history, natural resources, and commitment to its citizens.
