2023 Barbados $5 5-oz Silver Eye of Providence Pyramid w/Gold Gilding
Five-Ounce Silver 3D Eye Of Providence Pyramid
A conventional symbol for God’s benevolent oversight, the Eye of Providence depicted on this three-dimensional coin struck is almost as old as the nation itself, appearing for the first time in 1782 on the Great Seal of the United States. Struck in five full ounces of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, it’s a symbolic replica of the design that also appears on the U.S. $1 bill as well as the Coat of Arms of a variety of countries, including Belarus, Neman, and Russia.
The All-Seeing Window Into One’s Soul
The human eye has often been called the window to one’s soul. As the body’s most symbolic sensory organ, it’s been used for centuries in both religious and secular contexts to represent clairvoyance, knowledge, and divine providence. The Eye is often enclosed in a triangle and surrounded by rays of light or glory, meant to represent divine providence whereby the eye of God watches over humanity. Here the eye is positioned above an unfinished pyramid of 13 steps, representing the original 13 States of the Union. $5 Barbados legal tender, this highly detailed, pyramid-shaped coin shows the front and back of the Great Seal with the Latin inscriptions “Annuit Coeptis” (“He approves (or has) approved our undertakings.”) and “Novus Ordo Seclorum” (“new order of the ages”). The All-Seeing Eye plated in 24-karat gold sees all from the top of the pyramid, and the entire coin features a beautiful, hand-applied antique finish that accentuates the detailed design.
The Freemason Conspiracy And The Great Seal
How this seemingly straightforward image—an eye set within a triangle—become an integral part of the Great Seal is the subject of multiple conspiracy theories. Most commonly found today on the back of the $1 bill, the symbol has also been associated with the Freemasons. And thanks to films such as 2004’s National Treasure starring Nicolas Cage, conspiracy theories linking the Freemasons with the founding of the United States, the Eye of Providence has become the fodder of conspiracy theorists everywhere—despite the fact that the only Freemason on the design committee for the Great Seal was Benjamin Franklin and his ideas were never adopted. Nevertheless, the Eye of Providence is a lightning rod for conspiracy theorists because it is very much hidden in plain sight. Even explicit denials by many Masonic organizations have served to only fuel further conspiracy theories, because, after all, the first sign of a conspiracy is denying it, right?
