Who Was Haym Solomon? History from a $1 Bill - =C2=A0fascinating!

=C2=A0=20
On the rear of the One Dollar bill, you will see two circles. Together,they=
=20
comprise the Great Seal of the=C2=A0United States.=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0The Fir=
st Continental Congress=20
requested that Benjamin Franklin and a group of men come up witha Seal. It =
took=20
those four years to accomplish this task and another twoyears to get it=20
approved.=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=20

If you look at the left-hand circle, you will see a Pyramid.=C2=A0
Notice the face is lighted, and the western side is dark. This country was =
just=20
beginning. We had not begun to explore the west or decided what we could do=
=C2=A0for=20
Western Civilization. The Pyramid is uncapped, again signifying that we wer=
e=C2=A0not=20
even close to being finished. Inside the Capstone you have the all-seeing e=
ye,=20
an ancient symbol for divinity. It was=C2=A0Franklin=E2=80=99s belief that =
one man couldn't=20
do it alone, but a group of men, with the help of God, could do anything.
=C2=A0
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0'IN GOD WE TRUST' is on this currency.

=C2=A0=C2=A0The Latin above the pyramid, ANNUIT COEPTIS, means, 'God has fa=
vored our=20
undertaking.' The Latin below the pyramid, NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM, means, 'a n=
ew=20
order has begun.' At the base of the pyramid is the Roman numeral for 1776.=
=20
(MDCCLXXVI)
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0If you look at the right-hand circle, and che=
ck it carefully, you will=20
learn that it is on every=C2=A0National =C2=A0 Cemetery in the=C2=A0United =
States. It is also=20
on the Parade of Flags Walkway at the Bushnell,=C2=A0Florida =C2=A0 Nationa=
l =C2=A0 Cemetery,=20
and is the centerpiece of most heroes' monuments. Slightly modified, it is =
the=20
seal of the President of the=C2=A0United States, and it is always visible w=
henever he=20
speaks; yet very few people know what the symbols mean.
The Bald Eagle was selected as a symbol for victory for two reasons: First,=
he=20
is not afraid of a storm; he is strong, and he is smart enough to soar abov=
e it.=20
Secondly, he wears no material crown. We had just broken from the King=20
of=C2=A0England. Also, notice the shield is unsupported. This country can n=
ow stand=20
on its own. At the top of that shield you have a white bar signifying congr=
ess,=20
a unifying factor. We were coming together as one nation. In the Eagle's be=
ak=20
you will read, 'E PLURIBUS UNUM' meaning, 'from many - one.'
=C2=A0Above the Eagle, you have the thirteen stars, representing the thirte=
en=20
original colonies, and any clouds of misunderstanding rolling away. =C2=A0A=
gain, we=20
were coming together as one.
=C2=A0
Notice what the Eagle holds in his talons. He holds an olive branch and arr=
ows.=20
=C2=A0This country wants peace, but we will never be afraid to fight to pre=
serve=20
peace. The Eagle always wants to face the olive branch, but in time of war,=
his=20
gaze turns toward the arrows.
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0They say that the number 13 is an unlucky number. This is=
almost a worldwide=20
belief. You will usually never see a room numbered 13, or any hotels or mot=
els=20
with a 13th floor. But think about this:
=C2=A0=C2=A013 original colonies,
=C2=A0=C2=A013 signers of the Declaration of=C2=A0Independence =C2=A0=C2=A0=
13 stripes on our flag,
=C2=A0=C2=A013 steps on the Pyramid,
=C2=A0 13 letters in 'Annuit Coeptis,'
=C2=A0=C2=A013 letters in ' E Pluribus =C2=A0Unum,'
=C2=A0=C2=A013 stars above the Eagle,
=C2=A0=C2=A013 bars on that shield,
=C2=A0=C2=A013 leaves on the olive branch,
=C2=A0=C2=A013 fruits, and if you look closely,
=C2=A0=C2=A013 arrows.
=C2=A0
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0And finally, if you notice the arrangement of the 13 star=
s in the right-hand=20
circle you will see that they are arranged as a Star of David.=C2=A0=C2=A0
=C2=A0
This was ordered by=C2=A0George Washington who, when he asked Haym Solomon,=
a wealthy=20
Philadelphia Jew, what he would like as a personal reward for his services =
to=20
the Continental Army, Solomon said=C2=A0he wanted nothing for himself but t=
hat he=20
would like something for his people.
=C2=A0
=C2=A0The Star of David was the result. Few people know that it was Solomon=
who saved=20
the Army through his financial contributions but died a pauper. =C2=A0Haym =
Solomon=20
gave $25 million to the Continental Army, money that was extremely importan=
t to=20
our independence from=C2=A0England.
=C2=A0
=C2=A0=C2=A0I always ask people, 'Why don't you know this?' Your children d=
on't know this,=20
and their history teachers don't know this. Too many veterans have given up=
too=20
much to ever let the meaning fade. =C2=A0Many veterans remember coming home=
to=20
an=C2=A0America that didn't care. Too many veterans never came home at all.=
.
=C2=A0
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0I, for one, plan to share this page with everyone, so tha=
t they can learn=20
what is on the back of the UNITED STATES ONE DOLLAR BILL, and what it stand=
s=20
for!
