The reverse features a repeating pattern of the Texas outline across the field, accompanied by the bar’s identifying hallmarks. Texas’s distinctive borders, shaped by historical agreements and natural boundaries, make it one of the most recognizable state outlines in the nation. From the Panhandle to the Gulf Coast, the design celebrates the geography and legacy that continue to define the Lone Star State.
