Comment
AboutA symbol of strength and resilience in the wild, the bald eagle is a regal sight to behold on this 2 oz. 99.99% fine silver coin. The coin’s reverse presents an engraved take on Vantage Point – Bald Eagle, an original work of art by world-renowned wildlife artist Robert Bateman. Its depiction of the bald eagle elicits feelings of awe, even in this quiet moment, as the majestic bird sits on its moss-covered perch and defiantly faces into the wind.
Design
The reverse is an engraved adaptation of Vantage Point – Bald Eagle, an original work of art by Canadian wildlife artist Robert Bateman. It features a side view of a bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) perched on the moss-covered roots of an uprooted tree. The coin’s luminous silver surface stands in for the original painting’s misty grey sky, where the text “CANADA 2023” appears, while the artist’s signature is engraved beneath a denomination of “30 DOLLARS”.
The obverse features a nature-themed 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.
