The 2024 issue of the Silver Burst series is something very special. One of the most heralded coin motifs in the world meets CIT’s exceptional ultra high relif minting technology. The result is a Bald Eagle whose bursting plumage is displayed with countless facets in stunning proof quality. Other incredible details are found that are also due to the smartminting® technology, such as the fragmenting splinters that extend into the edge of the coin.
Adding to this, some of them are either polished or dark textured giving an even more realistic depiction of the Eagle’s “Silver Burst” appearance.
With a mintage of just 999 pieces, the Bald Eagle is issued as legal tender by Cook Islands.
