2008-P Bald Eagle Silver Proof Dollar (OGP/COA)

The majestic Bald Eagle has come to symbolize America's freedom, strength and democracy. Bald Eagles were once abundant throughout our Nation. But poaching, habitat destruction, pesticides, and food source contamination took their toll, reducing the population from approximately 100,000 nesting pairs at the founding of our Nation to just over 400 nesting pairs in the early 1960's.
