It prominently features Independence Hall, which not only served as the venue for the signing of the Declaration of Independence but also was the working place of many Masons during the revolution. It is said that 9 of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence were Freemasons. The page, at the base of the Square and Compasses, is symbolic of this historical document.
