The Statue of Liberty wears a crown with 7 rays to signify the unity of the 7 continents.
The Statue of Liberty is actually a greatly enlarged copy of the original 'Statu du Liberte' which is on Pont Neuf Bridge in Paris, and was a gift of friendship from the people of France to the USA in the 1880's- so her crown is just reproduced from the original.
It's meant to symbolise the triumph of liberty and freedom- 'liberty wears the crown of freedom from oppression', sort of thing. It represents the crowning of the liberation of the people.

Source: http://www.nps.gov/stli/historyculture/history-continued.htm == There is no list of the "gemstones" in the crown of the Statue of Liberty. Actually the crown is a diadem and it was always assumed that all such headpieces were adorned with "gemstones". It is fascinating to observe that these "gemstones" are windows and through them Liberty's people can be seen. Thus it can be safely said that Liberty's "gems" are her people.
