Diamond License Plates.
Automobile license plates in Arkansas have a new design that incorporates a faceted diamond background image to represent the state's public diamond mine -- the Crater of Diamonds State Park.
State officials considered other motifs, but found the diamond design represented the state best.
During the unveiling in Little Rock on March 9, Richard Weiss, director of the state's finance department, said a sheaf of rice, a mallard duck, and the diamond were considered for a design montage, but the look became "too cluttered."
Arkansas license plates are made by Waldale Manufacturing in diamond-rich Canada.
Comments
Interesting to note, when you step back about a car length from the new license plate, you will see a holographic image of a dble DNA strand superimposed on top of this diamond in the middle of the plate. Any comments?
