On your coin's reverse, a bald eagle soars high above the coast in this dramatic design by Canadian artist Steve Hepburn. The eagle's wings are outstretched with power and confidence, every feather depicted in magnificent detail. Its flight feathers sweep across the lower portion of the coin, drawing the eye in, over the eagle's shoulder to its intensely focused profile and the shimmering water below. The viewer gets the sense they are soaring alongside this magnificent raptor with a privileged view of the coastline and mountains in the distance.
