Forever and ever my favorite eagle on any coin, ever:

Other than the "archangel" swoop of the wings, it's about the best representation of how a bald eagle actually looks I've found on our coinage.

MJ I have always been a big fan of Morgan's "defiant eagle" designs seen here on the Shield Earring dollar J1703 and Schoolgirl dollar J1609 but I have to admit the Lincoln commemorative is an improvement to his original concept.

 

BTW you have really been tempting me with your beautifully toned commems................. so far I have managed to resist that area of numismatics??????? hm

The Shield Earring and Schoolgirl dollar are so amongst my favorite patterns and coins of all time.

 

FYI- There are lots of things I could use in life I guess. The last one I need is you entering the commem market! :makepoint::grin:
