Gracing the the obverse of the coin is none other than the winged predator itself, the red-tailed hawk. This design has been skillfully rendered in stunning detail so as to capture each distinct feature. Equally as awe-inspiring is the sense of movement created by the dynamic angles of the hawk’s body. Details, such as its protruding head and fully extended wings and talons, offer viewers a glimpse of this airborne predator from the prey’s perspective and make it appear as though the hawk were ready to swoop down on them from above.
