The website at www.crescentcity.org shows a circular format seal. The outer concentric circle is gold with black fimbriation. At top are the words 'CITY OF CRESCENT CITY' in blue block letters, with 'CALIFORNIA' in similar fashion at bottom. At lower right and left flanks respectively are two blue five-pointed stars. Background color of the central image is pale yellow. To the right is a large gold crescent whose points face left and the topmost of which reaches to the top of a very tall stylized redwood divided vertically blue/gold. Behind the tree is a stylized range of dark blue mountains, at the foot of which are three blue wavy lines. At the bottom of the central image# is the date '1854' in small blue numerals.
