2014 $20 Silver Coin Soaring Bald Eagle
2014 $20 Silver Coin Soaring Bald Eagle
This proof-quality coloured coin is struck in one troy ounce of 99.99% fine silver, and is part of the Royal Canadian Mint's 2014 five-coin series featuring four scenes from the daily life of the majestic bald eagle. This creature is Canada's largest bird of prey, and has symbolized speed, strength and power throughout Canada's history. Some First Nations cultures believe that the bald eagle is sacred and holy, a spiritual messenger between the gods and humans. The eagle is depicted here in stunning colour, its magnificent wingspan rendered in striking, three-dimensional detail; we are given the opportunity to watch the bird as he coasts gracefully over a skillfully-engraved northern waterscape. This colourful and fun coin is an excellent way to begin collecting all five of the coins in this exciting Bald Eagle series - a unique, artistic way of esteeming this iconic aerial predator. This coin would make an excellent gift, or provide a distinguished addition to any collection of fine coins.
