From: Russell Hendel <rhendel@mcs.drexel.edu> Date: Subject: The Jewish Star is on the American Dollar Jeanette Friedman mentions that originally Hebrew was suppose to be the official American language and that Harvard has Hebrew on its insignia. In a similar vein I should mention that that on the back of the one dollar bill one can see a Jewish star...13 stars arranged in the form of two intersecting triangles (=the jewish star) on top of the eagles head. Chaim Solomon helped finance the War of Independence. When President Washington offered him a reward and thank you he asked that it be commemorated that the Jews helped form this country Russell Jay Hendel; Phd ASA Rhendel @ mcs drexel edu
