Seeing our country's history through the bill

From the Cheezer, an excellent post about the symbolism of the dollar bill.

A snippit:

If you look at the left-hand circle, you will see a Pyramid. Notice the face is lighted, and the western side is dark. This country was just beginning. We had not begun to explore the West or decided what we could do for Western Civilization.. The Pyramid is un-capped, again signifying that we were not even close to being finished. Inside the capstone you have the all-seeing eye, an ancient symbol for divinity. It was Franklin's belief that one man couldn't do it alone, but a group of ! men, with the help of God, could do anything.

"IN GOD WE TRUST" is on this currency.. The Latin above the pyramid, ANNUIT COEPTIS, means, "God has favored our undertaking."
