2015 FINE SILVER FRACTIONAL SET BALD EAGLE
From the Royal Canadian Mint’s renowned collection of coins featuring
the wild animals of Canada, we are proud to present this 2015 Fine
Silver Bald Eagle Fractional Set—a collectible keepsake of Canada’s
natural beauty.
The amazing bald eagle—Haliaeetus leucocephalus—is Canada’s largest bird
of prey and the only eagle exclusive to North America. An apex predator
with no natural enemies, the bald eagle has long been a potent symbol
of vision, power, and stoicism. The adult boasts a wing span of more
than 2 metres, a standing height of about 1 metre, and an average weight
of up to 7 kilograms. Females are generally larger than males. The
renowned raptor is noted for its distinctive dark feathered body and
white-feathered head, large golden eyes, bright yellow beak, and massive
yellow claws armed with sharp, powerful talons. This long-lived bird
can survive nearly 30 years in the wild and even longer in captivity.
Nesting in tall trees near large bodies of water and well away from
human habitation, bald eagles survive on a diet of fish, birds,
invertebrates, and small mammals, but are opportunistic feeders who will
also steal from other predators and eat carrion.
