The bald eagle, a formidable apex predator, reigns as North America’s largest bird of prey. Renowned for its unmatched power and keen vision, this iconic symbol of freedom has no natural enemies. With a wingspan exceeding two meters and a weight of up to seven kilograms, the adult eagle is a majestic sight. Its distinctive appearance, featuring a dark body, white head, piercing golden eyes, and powerful yellow talons, sets it apart.

The coin’s obverse showcases Queen Elizabeth II, crafted by Susanna Blunt. A special marking, adorned with four pearls representing the four effigies on Canadian coins, accompanies the double date of her reign.
