Question
what are the 12 elements (six on both sides) and what do they stand for of the great American seal on the back of a dollar bill

Answer
Hi again Virgil,

For understanding the Great Seal, I cannot improve on the information supplied by

http://www.greatseal.com/symbols/index.html

This site will provide all of the information clearly, and with images.

I hope this is helpful.
