Montana State License Plate

Montana drivers can choose from a number of license plates, ranging from the standard plate to designs that reflect their military service or show their support for a Montana college or community organization. The current standard plate was issued beginning in January 2006. The design features Montana's sky in a rich blue-green. Along the bottom, mountain ridges and forest transition to foothills then prairies in an image that echoes the state's geography. The "dot" between a county prefix and the plate number is the familiar silhouette of an animal's skull. "Montana" is written across the top in rustic gold lettering.
