the number 13 that can be seen on feathers stars stripes and more it's a tribute to original colonies and a symbolic element that's featured more than just once the number thirteen represents the thirteen original colonies of the United States which for Delaware Pennsylvania New Jersey Georgia Connecticut Massachusetts Bay Maryland South Carolina New Hampshire Virginia New York North Carolina Rhode Island and Providence Plantations check the back of the bill where you can see the two circles together they comprised the Great Seal of the United States an element that took four years to get it approved pay

attention to the images in the circles you can see the american eagle holding 13 arrows of war in its left talent the number 13 can also be found on the shield which has 13 red and white vertical stripes these stripes are connected to the horizontal blue band which represents the Congress uniting the original colonies but that's not the end of it have you ever counted the rows on the pyramid it comes with 13 rows that symbolize strength and duration of the 13 original colonies we'll talk more about the pyramid in just a bit because it

comes with phrases and messages you probably never even noticed hey guys we are so excited to announce we're producing own original content head over to the trendy for the best DIYs fashion tips makeup hacks and so much more we are sure you're going to love it and be sure to let us know what you think in the comment section if you let me hear from you see you there Latin phrase on the Eagle the US dollar comes with plenty of latin phrases that hold meaningful messages you probably never knew before unless you studied Latin or

did your own research how many phrases have you noticed and do you know what they all mean let's start with the phrases on the seal of the United States turn the bill to the back and you'll notice that the American Eagle and the pyramid both feature Latin writing let's focus on the Eagle first as we have a lot more things to explore with the pyramid the letters can be found right above the wings but the meaning of them is often missed translated as one out of many however because of the way the words are placed

the sentence has even more possible translations one is one for many men another is one from many women and final is one from many things however the meaning of the sentence is still the same it describes the action of many things uniting into one in this case bringing together the 13 colonies and creating the United States of America but that's not the only Latin phrase you can find we'll take a look at the phrases on the pyramid and a few secret messages on there later on but all Latin inscriptions have to do with the history

of the United States letters on the pyramid so let's look at the pyramid on the Great Seal in more detail the final design of the pyramid was accepted in 1782 the pyramid itself symbolizes strength and duration of the United States as a country but it holds many more secrets you never noticed firstly check out the Latin inscription you see at the bottom it represents a newly formed government and the beginning of the new American era you might have noticed the creepy eye at the top we'll talk more about that later on but let's pay more

attention to the small symbols you never noticed on the pyramid have you ever noticed that the pyramid is actually unfinished it comes with 13 steps which of course goes back to the 13 original US colonies we've already mentioned earlier that the unfinished pyramid comes with even more symbolism and indicates future growth in the nation and expansion do you see the Roman numerals located on the bay to the pyramid those stand for 1776 which was the date the founders chose to represent the new American era of course it's based on the bottom of the pyramid and

acts as a base for all future growth we bet you had no idea a simple pyramid can hold so much symbolism we're just getting started just wait till we get to the next quite controversial element that's placed at the top of the pyramid the all-seeing eye one of the most talked-about symbols of the dollar bill is definitely the all-seeing eye also known as the Eye of Providence the eye is of course controversial because of its resemblance to the Illuminati sign but stay tuned to hear more about that and all other conspiracies in just a few

minutes the Aussie and I first appeared as part of the standard iconography of the Freemasons back in 1797 and went through a couple of redrawing before settling on the final version the symbol has a direct connection to the unfinished pyramid which represents future growth and acts as a capstone the direct meaning is of course religious as the eye represents the all-seeing eye of God keeping a watch on the country however many have noticed that this meaning could have changed as the symbol of this triangle evolved through the years the eye has also been noted in

a few versions of the Bible and was adopted by masonry in 1797 the Latin words above the eye were explained by Charles Thompson the founding father who was also chosen to complete the design of the Great Seal the meaning of the eye and the motto over it allude to the many signal into positions of Providence in favor of the American cause the effect translation of the motto above the eye means that the Providence favors our undertakings there's a hidden creature it's time to take out a magnifying glass because there's one thing we're positive you've never

noticed on the dollar bill unless you studied it closely turn it to the front of the bill and get closer to the left edge of number one you see the arc on the left side of the shield the right side features leaves that there are no leaves on the left side instead you can find a small creature and many suspects it's either an owl a spider or something that holds a secret symbolic meaning that's connected to the history of the United States if you think about it the symbol and behind an owl would definitely add

a perfect touch to the bill that's already full of secret elements a similar-looking creature can also be found at the bottom of the bill look closely at the strange pattern between the number one and the one dollar sign do you see it the secret behind this symbol is still unexplained and while many think it's just a part of the pattern others suspect it has a secretive meaning the founding fathers never shared with anyone else conspiracy theorists also suspect the owl is another symbol of Freemasons and Illuminati but of course we'll probably never know the truth

do you think it's an owl or just a pattern the eagle let's pay attention to another American symbol you probably know all too well bald eagles represents strength beauty and longevity and it first appeared as an American symbol in 1782 but have you noticed everything that's happening with the eagle on the dollar bill the symbols represent a lot more than just strength and beauty Charles Thompson one of the founding fathers described the American Eagle as one of the most striking symbols the eagle on the wing is rising it flies freely and independently but pay attention

to what its holding in its left Talon you can see the 13 arrows and an olive branch and it's right the 13 arrows signify the war in 13 original colonies and the olive branch signifies peace there's also a reason why they're placed on the left and right the right side symbolizes dominance and the arrows can be interpreted as a warlike gesture the left talent shows a much more peaceful offering as olive branches symbolize peace and victory speaking of the eagle did you know that the original animal that represented the United States was supposed to be

a turkey the idea was presented by Benjamin Franklin who actually didn't particularly like the idea of an eagle but that's a story for another video let's get back to exploring more hidden secrets in the dollar bill the circled letters you've probably noticed that the dollar bill features some strange letters and by now you know that every element on the bill has a secret meaning if you turn the bill to the front you'll notice a circled letter on the left side of George Washington's portrait these are also known as the Federal Reserve seal check your other

bills and you might see that these letters aren't all the same although these might have a secret meaning that talks about the history of the United States they can tell you exactly where every single bill was printed pretty cool right as you might know there are twelve different US Federal Reserve Bank's which are responsible for printing money these letters go from a to I and they represents twelve cities where you can find the Federal Reserve Bank's you can find these banks in Boston New York Philadelphia Cleveland Richmond Atlanta Chicago st. Louis Minneapolis Kansas City Dallas

and San Francisco so for example you see the letter A it means that your dollar bill was printed in Boston or if you see the letter G it was printed in Chicago the letter B stands for New York and so on and so on if you look closely at the letter you'll notice the city's name in the actual circle along with the state of the Federal Reserve serial numbers speaking of numbers let's have a closer look at the serial numbers you can find on the bill and they actually appear twice once right below the Federal

Reserve seal on the left and right above the Treasury seal on the right here's a little secret on how you can easily spot if your bill is actually fake check out the letter on the Federal Reserve seal this letter must match the first letter of the serial number at all times if it doesn't you're most likely dealing with counterfeit cash then check out the letter right under the serial number that letter indicates how many times the Bureau of Engraving and printing used the same sequence of serial numbers they usually print 832 bills per serial number

so if you see a letter A that means this sequence was used for the first time or if you see a letter V it means it was used 22 times speaking of the dollar bill rare serial numbers could make your bill worth thousands of dollars so check if you see any of these digits people are now buying dollar bills with seven repeating digits of a serial number in a row you might also check if you have seven of a kind digits or four digits in a row your dollar bill might just be worth more than

just a dollar conspiracy theories if you look at these symbols for a long time you'll start seeing more and more strange things no one can escape conspiracy theories not even American money over the years people started paying more and more attention to the symbols on the dollar bill and with that came various theories and explanations of the story behind the elements of course the all-seeing eye points to the infamous Illuminati and many believe that some of the Masons were also members of Illuminati a secret society that can control just about every aspect of the world

it's also been pointed out that the 13 stars above the Eagle connected to a hexagon which is connected to satanic beliefs people also claim that it's the same hexagon on the pyramid and many think that the Roman numerals represent the year when Illuminati was first formed the tiny mysterious owl that can be found on the left side of number 1 was also connected to the Freemasons and many people believe it symbolizes Satanism we're sure you can find more and more triangles just about anywhere on the dollar bill and many believe the money holds even more

hidden Illuminati secrets what do you think are these symbols more than just regular symbols talking about the history of the United States or is it all just one big conspiracy theory we're not quite done with conspiracy theories wait until you see what you can do with the $20 bill you can fold the $20 bill this is one of the weirdest secrets we've shown you today we've tried it and we're really not sure what to think about this did you know that you can fold a $20 bill in a certain way that shows the New York

easily compared to the actual September 11th moment if you do the same to the $5 bill you will see the same images but the buildings are still standing you can also see the Twin Towers ablaze on a $10 bill while the $50 bill only shows smoke the folding Theory hasn't yet been confirmed as true but you should definitely try folding it and for yourself of course you can also fold the bill into a cool-looking origami like this one that's it for the 10 most mind-blowing secrets in the US dollar for more videos like this one
