1 Dollar Bill Research Paper

Over the years, there have been many possible theories of different information and symbols hidden on the American one dollar bill. These symbols could possibly lead to the uncovering of the secrets of the framers of this nation and maybe even their undisclosed intentions while building the United States of America. One of the symbols discovered is so small that a magnifying glass may be needed to see it. On the front side of the dollar bill are small “1”s at each corner of the note. On the top-left corner of the top-right “1” appears to be one of two images. It can be seen as an owl peeking over the number or a spider crawling across it. Either way, it has tremendous meaning. The owl is a very significant and a widely used symbol in the art of freemasonry. It was the symbol for Minerva, the goddess

If it is in fact a spider on the “1”, this can be seen as a satanic representation or a symbol of evil as spiders are one of the many symbols for Satan. Another hidden symbol is a possible portrayal of the Hindu god Shiva. Shiva is known as “the destroyer” and can be seen on either side of the bottom left-hand “ONE” on the back side of the one dollar bill in the spirals of lines. She is seen with her hair in a bun, as traditionally depicted. Lastly, the one dollar bill could possibly feature the Maltese Cross on the back side of the dollar bill in the top-left corner within the “1” and “ONE”. The Maltese Cross is the symbol of the Knights of Malta, or otherwise known as, the Knights Hospitallers. The group’s full name was The Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and of Malta. In 1798, the Order’s Island fortress and home of Malta was captured by Napoleon Bonaparte and many of the Hospitallers financiers fled to the newly independent country of America. This could possibly explain how a symbol from a country an ocean away could appear on the dollar
