Who made the great seal?
The original motto of the US was "E Pluribus Unum" which is Latin for "One from many." It refers to the joining of a single federal national government with individual state governments. In 1776, congress appointed a committee to design a Great Seal for the US. The first design used the E Pluribus Unum motto but it was rejected by Congress. In 1782, the Secretary of Congress was asked to complete the Great Seal project and he produced a design that included an eagle with a heart shaped shield holding arrows and an olive branch. In a scroll held in the eagle's beak was the motto, "E Pluribus Unum" and Congress accepted the design. The Great Seal was first used on 16 September 1782.
