The beautiful emblem of the Coast Guard is featured on a brass circle. The words say UNITED STATES COAST GUARD 1790. In the smaller circle are the words SEMPER PARATUS - which translates to ALWAYS READY.

The solid brass plate under the emblem is 5 inch x 2 inch so you have lots of room for text. The dark mahogany wood colored plaque has an easel on its back which you can use or just hang the plaque on a wall. Arrives in a satin lined box. Click on the 2nd and 3rd images to see plaque in its presentation box and the back of the plaque when standing.

GREAT VALUE!
