Gliding down with its wings outstretched, a Great Horned Owl hovers above a rabbit that scurries away. The scene is taking place in the forest of the Adirondack Mountains in Upstate New York. “GREAT HORNED OWL” is inscribed above.

The Great Horned Owl is also known as the hoot owl or tiger owl because in early descriptions of the bird it was referred to as the “tiger of the air” or “winged tiger”. The Great Horned Owl is native to America and is well camouflaged in its forest habitat. The owl has large, powerful eyes and a wingspan between three and five feet. As seen on the obverse, the owl preys on smaller animals such as rabbits, rats, mice, reptiles, birds, and more.

The thick forests of the Adirondack Mountains are covered with pine, spruce and other trees. Various animals inhabit the area among the Adirondack Wilderness, including an estimated 260 species of birds.

The common reverse of the American Wildlife Series features a stylization of the United States with a bald eagle flying above. The bird holds a banner reading “By Thomas D. Rogers, Sr.” Also engraved is the name of the series and the round’s weight and purity.

Thomas Rogers, a long-time sculptor and engraver at the U.S. Mint, designed each image in the American Wildlife Series. His considerable talent brought to life the many beautiful creatures and landscapes featured in this series.
