The statue's formal name is
"Liberty Enlightening the World" has many symbols. The crown
contains 25 windows that symbolize gemstones and heaven’s rays
shining through to the world. Chains and shackles are at her feet
represent America breaking the chains of tyranny and accepting
democracy as a form of government. The torch represents
enlightenment and the tablet she holds represents a book of law. The
seven rays around the head form a halo, showing she is divine and
evoke the sun, the seven seas, and the seven continents.
The United States Post Office issued a Statue of Liberty Stamp a
few years ago, but used the Las Vegas Liberty by mistake.
Of course, the artist sued for copyright infringement.
