Lady Liberty holds a large stone tablet on which the date 07-04-1776 is inscribed, signifying the start of American independence.
Since Lazarus’ poem was mounted on a plaque, it is not actually inscribed on the Statue of Liberty. The only Statue of Liberty inscription can be found on the tablet in her left hand, which says JULY IV MDCCLXXVI (July 4, 1776), the day the United States adopted the Declaration of Independence.
You can google all the history and information.
July IV, 1776 in Roman numerals
