Design

On the 2026 Barbados 40th Anniversary American Eagle Spherical Silver Coin, the design flows continuously around the surface of the sphere. The imagery focuses on the American bald eagle, a long-standing symbol of the American Eagle series. Several eagle depictions appear across the coin, with standout designs pulled from the reverse artwork of the American Silver Eagle, American Gold Eagle, American Platinum Eagle, and American Palladium Eagle.

History

The American Eagle bullion program officially began in 1986 after Congress passed the Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985. The first releases were gold coins that featured the iconic Walking Liberty design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, paired with a family of eagles on the reverse. Silver coins followed later in 1986, with platinum joining the lineup in 1997 and palladium debuting in 2017. Today, American Eagle coins are widely collected for their precious metal content and recognizable designs.
