Eye of Providence and Pyramid Symbolism on the U.S. Dollar Bill #2271883 (License: Personal Use)

This iconic engraving, designed by Francis Hopkinson and adopted in 1782, depicts the Eye of Providence radiating light over a 13-step pyramid representing the original colonies, with the year MDCCLXXVI (1776) at its base; the Latin phrases translate to “He [God] has favored our undertakings” and “A new order of the ages.” The design reflects Enlightenment ideals, Freemasonic influence, and the Founders’ vision of American destiny.
