The great seal of Wisconsin was created in 1851 and features the state coat of arms (which also appears on Wisconsin's state flag). The banner above the shield displays Wisconsin's state motto: "FORWARD." Directly below this is a badger (the state animal). Supporting the shield are a sailor and a miner (the two most important industries of the state at the time it was founded). The center of the shield features the United States shield and the motto "E Pluribus Unum" (one from many).
The pick and shovel are symbols of the early lead mining industry; galena (lead ore) is the state mineral of Wisconsin. A plow represents the farmers and agriculture of Wisconsin; an arm and hammer represent Wisconsin's artisans and laborers; and an anchor is a symbol for Wisconsin's sailing and shipping industry. Below the shield is a cornucopia - a symbol for the plenty of the state, bars of lead representing Wisconsin's mineral wealth, and 13 stars which symbolize the original thirteen states.
