The Great Seal of Newfoundland was given royal approval in 1827. It depicts Mercury, the god of commerce and merchandise, presenting to Britannia a fisherman who, kneeling, offers her the harvest of the sea. Above this device are the words Terra Nova, and below, the words Haec Tibi Dona Fero - "These gifts I bring thee."
