32 in by 32 in (900 mm by 900 mm) Nevada State Route shield. Uses the Roadgeek 2005 fonts. (United States law does not permit the copyrighting of typeface designs, and the fonts are meant to be copies of a U.S. Government-produced work anyway.)

Derived from sign specifications e-mailed from NevadaDOT.
A telephone call with NevadaDOT cleared their design for any use whatsoever to the extent of Nevada law (i.e., do not use this to physically create professional-grade signs on use on public roads — though that is separate from copyright). Anyways, see below.
