Coin Highlights:

Bald eagles have a long evolutionary history, with their ancestors dating back around 20 million years. Fossils indicate that they originated in Eurasia and eventually migrated to North America. Native American tribes have long held the bald eagle in high regard and considered it a sacred bird. Many tribes incorporated the eagle’s feathers, talons, and images into their cultural practices and ceremonies.
Lady Liberty is featured on the obverse of 2008-W Proof American Gold Eagle Coins. This historic design from Augustus Saint-Gaudens offers a front-facing, full-length portrait of Liberty backed by sun rays and a circle of stars as she strides forward with a torch in one hand and an olive branch in the other.
A family of American bald eagles features on the reverse of 2008-W 1/4 oz Proof Gold Eagle Coins. In this design, a male bald eagle soars over the family nest where a female eagle guards the newborn hatchlings.
