City Seal
The City Seal uses a classic "crest-and-ribbon" style with a golden crest that symbolizes the golden image of the city reflected in its gold trade industry.
Emblazoned also in the crest are the symbols of the agricultural products of the city, including the cut-flower industry. The other products shown are durian, banana and coconut.
On the lower-right side are the interlocking gears that symbolize the city's leap into modernization evident in the boom in infrastructure, trade and commerce.
The brown lines inside the crest symbolize the points of the compass; as a trade center of products, Tagum City is the main commercial hub of the gold and agriculture industry of Northern Davao and also of Mindanao.
Finally, the words "City of Tagum, Province of Davao del Norte" inside a green and a brown ribbon proclaim the city's pride in its people and its land.
