The Eagle is the national symbol and was required by law to be on the $1 coins (and most other coins) until Congress suspended it to allow the Statue of Liberty to be placed on the reverse of the Presidential dollars. Now the only coin we still make with a Eagle reverse is the Kennedy half dollars and the American Eagle Bullion coins.
