You might need a magnifying glass for this one, but if you look closely around the ‘webbing’ you can see what appears to be some sort of creature poking his head out. The most sensible theory behind this says it was put there as an anti-counterfeit measure. Others say it’s just an owl and some others believe it’s a skull upside down.

If you inspect the corners of the back side of the bill, you’ll be able to notice a very distinctive cross-shape behind the number 1. Some people believe it to be the symbol of the Maltese cross, which has been deliberately included as a hidden reference to the famed Knights of Malta. These Knights live to care for those in need like homeless, ill people and children.

Some Americans have spotted something in the talons of the eagle shown on the back of the bill. The eagle is clutching 13 arrows, as well as an olive branch with 13 berries, and a shield with 13 horizontal stripes and 13 vertical stripes. Many people believe the image reflects some kind of demonic backstory. However, scholars believe the number 13 represents the number of original colonies in America.

The eye is perhaps the most mysterious of all the dollar bill symbols. People believe the eye represents the presence of God, who constantly watches over the Christian nation of America.

Looking very closely at the mesh design near the bottom-left 1, many people see what they believe to be a figure with its hair in a bun. Lots of people say it’s a depiction of the Hindu god, Shiva, who is also known as ‘The Destroyer’.

If you look closely at the base of the pyramid, you’ll spot a very long series of letters: MDCCLXXVI. That’s a Roman numeral and it stands for 1776. This is the year that America finally declared its independence, and therefore there’s no real mystery there!
