America’s strength, freedom, and democracy are all symbolized in the image of a Bald Eagle soaring through our spacious skies. The Bald Eagle’s proud bearing has adorned the Great Seal of the United States since 1782, representing to the world the American values of courage, spirit, and equality.

This national treasure came perilously close to extinction. But years of legal protection, hard work, and vigilance have joined to ensure its survival. Once a rare sight, the Bald Eagle population is now so robust that it no longer needs the protection of the Endangered Species Act, though other protections are still in place.

The Bald Eagle Coin and Medal Set is limited to 50,000 units and features a Bald Eagle uncirculated silver dollar and a bronze Bald Eagle medal from the National Wildlife Refuge System Centennial Medal Series. This informative set highlights the journey of the Bald Eagle from near extinction to its recent removal from the Endangered Species List and its important role as our national emblem.

The obverse of the silver dollar coin portrays a mature Bald Eagle soaring in flight, with its majestic wings spread while the reverse features the original rendition of the Great Seal of the United States that was in use from 1782 to 1841. The obverse of the bronze medal honors President Theodore Roosevelt and the reverse design depicts a Bald Eagle in flight with a treetop background, and the inscription "BALD EAGLE" at the top right. Join the United States Mint in commemorating the majesty of our national symbol and its remarkable restoration to our Nation’s lands, waterways and skies.
