Two bald eagles form a striking pair on this pure gold coin, which combines classic engraving with strong visual imagery.
At once graceful and formidable, the bald eagle is easily one of the most visually striking birds. Its dignified appearance, whether in flight or at rest, never fails to inspire awe—as it does on this magnificent collectible. On the coin’s reverse, the wildlife portrait captures a picture-perfect moment: it shows a bald eagle pair shortly after landing on a pine bough, and basking in the radiant glow of 99.99% pure gold.
The follow-up to 2022’s The Mighty Bison, now available in 99.99% pure gold (new).

Packaging
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a black Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
A strong, compelling design
Features a strong, balanced visual concept that implies a circular motion through the positioning of the eagles, while the curved tree branch helps to ground the design.
A mix of frostings
Multiple frostings add a sense of depth and create a striking contrast between the different design elements, resulting in a more realistic portrait of a bald eagle pair.

Designed by Canadian wildlife artist Claudio D’Angelo, your coin’s reverse features a portrait of two bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) on a pine bough. These majestic raptors are positioned in a way that best showcases their features and also implies motion, with the perched eagle holding its wings outward while gazing at its companion, while the newly landed eagle tries to secure its grip. The obverse features a field pattern and the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt. The obverse also bears a special marking that includes four pearls symbolizing the four effigies that have graced Canadian coins and the double date of her reign.
