The new seal depicts the Clanton water tower with the outlines of the City of Clanton in the background. It's unknown when the seal replaced the old one.

The municipal website (http://www.clanton.al.us) shows a standard circular format seal consisting of a field or encircled by two concentric circles fimbriated black, the fimbriation on the outer circle much thicker than on the inner one. Within the whole and following exactly the inner fimbriation are what appear to be a number of very small mullets (details unclear) also black. In the centre of the field is an American bald eagle perched with wings partly spread and facing sinister of the same, with an illegible blazon in chief. Beneath the eagle are three small mullets (number of points illegible), while within the rings of the concentric circles are the words in capital letters CITY OF CLANTON at the top and CHILTON COUNTY, ALABAMA at the bottom, with a mullet of five at both dexter and sinister, all black.
