label: Description
content: The design of the U.S. one dollar note has not changed since 1963. Today’s one dollar note features first U.S. President George Washington on the obverse, or front, and the Great Seal of the United States on the reverse. The Great Seal design contains many significant symbols. The bald eagle represents the nation. The eagle holds arrows in one talon and an olive branch in the other, signifying war and peace. On the eagle’s breast is a shield with thirteen stripes, one for each American colony. Opposite the eagle is a pyramid in thirteen levels topped with an all-seeing eye. Inscribed at the pyramid’s base in Roman numerals is the year of the Declaration of Independence, 1776.
