No, it is the 1 dollar bill, you know? the one with the pyramid and the eye and other masonic and satanic symbols. The dollar bill is not a coin. The U.S. has both $1 bills and $1 coins. The 1¢ coin is the most heavily used coin, with anywhere from 6 to 13 billion minted annually. It's needed in great numbers for making change because the U.S. does not issue a 2¢ coin, so any purchase that isn't a multiple of 5 can require up to 4 1-cent pieces. The $1 bill is the most heavily used banknote, accounting for nearly half of all bills printed each year. While the U.S. does issue a $2 bill, for various historical reasons they don't circulate widely so large numbers of $1 bills are also needed for change-making.
