Bald eagles are mainly found along Canada’s Pacific coast in British Columbia, where large salmon runs provide plenty of food. These powerful birds nest in tall evergreen trees like Douglas firs and western red cedars, especially near the region’s rocky coastline. It’s common to see bald eagles featured on Canadian bullion coins. Today, BullionMax offers the 2020 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Bald Eagle Coin.

Each 2020 1/10 oz Canadian Gold Bald Eagle Coin is shipped in protective plastic. These fractional-ounce gold coins showcase a detailed design on the reverse and feature Queen Elizabeth II’s image on the obverse, which also includes radial lines for added texture.

Though most common on the west coast, bald eagles also live across much of Canada, including the boreal forests in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. They are also found near rivers and lakes in Ontario and Quebec. In the winter, many migrate south toward open water where they can still catch fish.

The obverse of the 2020 Gold Bald Eagle Coin features Queen Elizabeth II in a right-profile portrait designed by Susanna Blunt in 2004. This design is notable for its simplicity—one of the few Canadian coin portraits of the Queen that does not include a crown.

On the reverse, the coin shows a bald eagle mid-flight. The bird is captured in a left-facing profile, wings sweeping forward and talons reaching down. Behind the eagle, a rugged coastline with dense forest is visible in the distance.
