The American Eagle coin is a unique member of the Wildlife in the Moonlight series. It portrays an epitomic figure of the American People and power on a high relief antique finish with careful selective gilding of the moon.
It is the emblem of the United States of America, symbolising strength, supreme power, authority and freedom. It appears on all economic and patriotic materials of the country and commands immense respect for what it stands for. Although, the American Eagle coin bears much numismatic weight in value and importance, especially for all lovers of freedom!
Struck in two full ounces of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, the coin is further augmented with a unique antique finish that gives the coin a jaw-dropping level of depth and dimension as shades of grey and black fill every crevice and groove in the design to create an almost three-dimensional effect. Finishes like this are typically applied by hand, meaning that no two coins are exactly alike! Rounding out the design is selective gold plating that can be seen across the face of the full moon in the background, turning what would typically be a silver moon into a bright, amber-colored Honey Moon, a “supermoon” that’s 30% brighter and 17% larger than a regular full moon! The inscriptions along the rim of the coin read “HALIAEETUS LEUCOCEPHALUS”—the scientific name for the Bald Eagle—and “AMERICAN EAGLE.”
