Without looking...
can you identify the two-word phrase
appearing below the Lincoln Memorial
on the back of a U.S. five dollar bill?

Weird, that's why my example says. And below that is "Five Dollars"

Nope.
Seems to say LINCOLN MEMORIAL on the images I have.

Is it a trick question? Has the bill been recently updated?

LINCOLN MEMORIAL is a title, not a phrase.

It is as much of a "phrase" as Five Dollars!
"Title" has no meaning in grammar so to compare the two is meaningless.

OK ... re-write English grammar.
Good luck.

You question HandAndy's grammar? 😲

As for the 5 dollar bill don't have a clue what is on either side, rare as a Canadian I even see one!
