The dollar bill used today was designed in 1957. This “paper money” is made from a blend of cotton and linen. Look closely, and you will see that it also contains red and blue silk fibers as an anti-counterfeiting measure.

The US Treasury seal is on the front. The top has scales representing justice, and the center shows a chevron with 13 stars representing the 13 colonies — the key acts as a symbol of authority.

The Great Seal of the United States is depicted with the obverse and reverse on the back of the dollar bill. The back of the seal is on the left side and contains a pyramid. The front of the Pyramid is lit, but the west side is dark, which some have suggested shows that we have not yet started to explore the West.

The Pyramid is not capped, which may mean that we have not yet completed our task of exploring the continent. Charles Thompson, secretary of Congress in 1782, told Congress that the Pyramid represents “strength and duration.”

An eye sits inside the cornerstone, as an ancient symbol of the deity and used for a long time by the Masons. Franklin was a Masons, but Adams and Jefferson were not. Above is the Latin phrase ANNUIT COEPTIS, which means, “God has favored our undertaking.” Below is the expression NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM, which means “a new order for the ages.” At the base of the Pyramid is the year 1776 in Roman numerals.

The obverse (front) of the seal is found in national cemeteries. It also serves as the basis for the seal of the President of the United States. Above Franklin’s objections (he wanted the turkey), the Bald Eagle was chosen as our nation’s symbol for victory. The eagle fears no storm, being strong and intelligent enough to soar over it, and it has no crown – important symbolism since we had just won our war against King George.

The shield on the chest of the eagle represents the Congress consisting of red and white stripes with a blue bar above. The colors come from the American flag; red represents robustness and value; white represents purity and innocence, and blue, vigilance, perseverance, and justice. The eagle’s beak holds a ribbon proclaiming E PLURIBUS UNUM, which means “one nation from many people.”
