It definitely looks like a hand drawn Illustrator job. Is that some kind of seal (state, country). I am just wondering if you could pull a better image of at least the emblem part off the web somewhere.

Look at Vector Magic | Precision Bitmap to Vector Conversion Online and try to have the image traced from the scan that you already have.

I think when the guys said 'trace' it meant exactly what you did in this instance (manually 'trace' it in Illustrator with the pen tool).

For a newbie to Illustrator, the redraw was a good effort, but i think you should fine tune it a bit to get it perfect before you present it.

I know this is late, but next time you want to trace something, you may want to take a look at Inkscape. I don't use it for anything but tracing pics...

ArtworkSource.com could do it. That's what they specialize in.
