New Jersey state flag
The New Jersey flag, adopted in 1896, consists of a light yellow field with the State Seal displayed in the center. This Seal features two female figures, Liberty and Ceres. Between these figures is a blue shield with 3 plows on it representing the importance of agriculture to the state economy. In the center is a helmet from a knight’s armor which represents sovereignty for a self-governing state. At the bottom is a banner that says, “LIBERTY AND PROSPERITY,” with the date, “1776,” in the center.
All of our flags at Star Spangled Flags are 100% made in the USA from start to finish! We use a tough, nylon fabric to hold up outdoors, extra stitching on the fly end of the flag, and a special UV coating to prevent fading from the sun.
