i saw a image of a US note somewhere and on its front (or back)it had a pyramid with a eye over it. The only information I have read is the usual BS freemason- Illuminati take over the world rant, and I'm wondering what is the symbolism of this meant to be.

Hi. I'm not sure ,just a guess is that the eye represents a higher being, and the pyramid was used to make a monument to the gods.

The two round designs on the back of the $1 bill make up the obverse and reverse of the Great Seal of the United States. Visit http://www.greatseal.com/ for a history of the Seal.

The other side depicts a pyramid, a symbol of permanence and strength. The unfinished pyramid represents striving toward growth. The eye represents an all-seeing deity and places the spiritual above the material. At the pyramid's base, 1776 appears in roman numerals. The motto "Annuit Coeptis" translates to "He [God] Has Favored Our Undertakings." "Novus Ordo Seclorum" is translated as "A New Order of the Ages" and signifies the beginning of the New American Era. I hope this helps it came from this site http://www.frbsf.org/currency/index.html
