[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 4890609, member: 66"]No the eagle on the Great Seal has ALWAYS looked to its right, where the olive branch has been griped in it right talon. (viewers left). It has never looked to its left toward the arrows. On the early Heraldic eagle reverses of our coins in the late 1790's and early 1800's the eagle did look at the arrows, but that was because for some reason the arrows had been placed in the eagles right talon, a heraldic error as it symbolizes a preference for war on the part of the US over peace.[/QUOTE]
