The menacing U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) eagle by Frank Gasparro (Mr. Gasparro likes to put his initials under the right leg of the eagle). This eagle is from the CIA Distinguished Intelligence Medal.

Compare this design to Mr. Gasparro's Kennedy half-dollar reverse and notice the half-dollar scrawniness.

Sadly, no. There are 5 altogether, but I only own 3 of them. Missing 50 Groschen #2850 and 5 Schilling #2879.
Hopefully you will remedy that sooner rather than later.

Wow, I never expected this topic to gain so much steam. Excellent contributions from everyone and there are many more eagles out there than I imagined!
