Ulysses S. Grant (1869-1877)

  • Very different seal - no arrows at all, just olive branch and laurel branch. Laurel symbolizes power and strength in battle. Olive branches symbolize peace.

  • For the first time we are seeing 13 stars in a cloud. (13 stars = 13 colonies) on Presidential China. The symbolism harkens back to a Seal first used by the Continental Congress.

  • Grant actually loved entertaining.
