| Reverse description | An extreme close-up portrait of a Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) fills the entire oval field, rendered in extraordinary high relief with meticulously engraved feather detail. The eagle's forward-facing visage dominates the design, with two inset black eyes capturing a lifelike quality and a powerful hooked beak depicted in finely modeled relief at center. The scientific name HALIAEETUS LEUCOCEPHALUS is inscribed along the inner rim, following the oval contour of the coin. |
