Lightbulb Money Facts and Findings ...(Did you notice....?)

How well do you look at your money? For those of us that notice history related stuff.....Fact / Funny

Fact #1.
On the $2 bill there are two "BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICAN" masons on the back....which means they were also "AT" the signing of the
Declaration of Independence but because they were black could not sign it...thats wack! I won't go there...


Fact #2.

On the old COINS....all the presidents face the same same way (to the left) EXCEPT President Lincoln....lol why is that? Inquiring minds want to know (if you know post it) I know....I'll see what you all come up with.

Fact #3.
On the $5 bill on the back the...The Lincoln Memorial has states listed in the top front of the building. Get your Magnifying
glasses...lol


Fact #4.

On the $1 bill, the top right corner of the 1 has a spider on the left side of that crest that the 1 sits in.

Just thought you would like to know....

Maybe that's his good side. Maybe Mary Todd had roughed him up earlier so he posed on the side most becoming.

Actually, that "spider" you referred to on the dollar bill is actually an owl.
