"By beginning at either end of the Egg in sequence, 5 distinct symbols are inherent in the design. The radiating gold star on the end section, symbolizes Life and Good Fortune. This leads to the series of 3-pointed stars in alternating gold and silver, which symbolizes the Trinity, representative of the strong devotion to the faith of our ancestors. A band of silver, circumscribing the Egg, has no end and no beginning, symbolizes Eternity. On the central barrel section are located windmills, of 6 vanes and points in gold and silver, which symbolize the rich harvest. The silver wolves' teeth pointing to the center from the silver band, which is the most prominent motif of the design, symbolize the main message, of protection and security afforded our pioneers by the R.C.M.P. The 3 colors, bronze, silver and gold, are rich color symbolizing Prosperity.  Bronze (charcoal brown) is the basic color of the design and suggests the Good Earth, the land on which our forefathers struggled for existence."
