Escudo del Estado
Durante el Gobierno de José Siurob Ramírez (1927-1930) se dio al territorio un escudo representativo que fue diseño y esculpido por el pintor y escultor italiano Gaetano Manglioni. Aquel escudo contenía una estrella, un caracol, tres pinos y tres medios círculos.

El 8 de octubre de 1974, Quintana Roo obtuvo la categoría de Estado Libre y Soberano y con el nombramiento se crearon tres nuevos municipios. Así, el escudo mencionado incorporó tres rayos luminosos al potente sol que lo adorna.

English translation:
Quintana Roo State Seal
During the Government of José Siurob Ramírez (1927-1930) the territory was given a representative seal that was designed and sculpted by the Italian painter and sculptor Gaetano Manglioni. That seal contained a star, a snail, three pine trees and three half circles.

On October 8, 1974, Quintana Roo obtained the status of Free and Sovereign State and with this appointment three new municipalities were created. Thus, to the mentioned seal were added three luminous rays to the powerful sun that adorns it.
