Photographic Artwork Themes for Mint Coins

Greetings ALL !

I'm Just wondering how the "native" Bald Eagle artwork
for the Sacagawea, or any Dollar coin is selected by the
US Mint.

Here, I put together a small collection of my photographs
from my vast image library, taken over about ten years.
When I reviewed my photographs, there seemed to be
some similarities with US Mint issues. So I'm wondering,
if anyone has ever posted their photographs with
potential to make it on (say) a dollar coin?

I take a lot of pictures of wildlife as well as
cultural themes.

Has this been done before ?

@sfs2002usa... Very nice pictures. There have been a few threads that compared pictures of eagles in nature to the image on coins. Some were remarkably close. Your image in the upper right is comparable to one on a coin. Cheers, RickO

Those eagles must be related, as they each have the same “markings” on them.
