  This fantastic bird of prey allowed me to photograph him or her at a range of about 12 ft., while eating lunch, I seriously lucked out.
  Played around with this snake for 15 minutes or so, what a treat it was to be able to capture this bird.
  I wouldn't mind seeing a RedTail on a coin, how bout you?.

  That would be cool but it is just my crazy photography that made it turn out that way. All white coin without any hint of mirrors or proof-like status etc.

  Thanks.
  
  It is a Children's Founders Roll Medal with ties to The Stone Mountain Memorial.
  
  It was one of many different programs that money was tried to be raised.
  
  
  The initial effort to raise funds for the Memorial through the selling of a numismatic item was the issuance of a bronze Children's Founders Roll medal. The medal was designed by Gutzon Borglum and sold from 1924 to 1925. The central device on the obverse features Borglum's proposed depiction of the figures of Lee, Jackson and Davis. His name appears in -script on the lower obverse field. The reverse carries the legend "Children's Founders Roll - Commemorating the Heroism of the People of the Confederacy". These were sold for $1.00 to children under 19 in honor of the memory of some person who served the Confederacy during the Civil War. In addition to receiving a medal, the child's and honoree's names were inscribed in a Book of Memory to be housed in a proposed Memorial Hall to be carved into the base of the mountain below the carving. The medals were struck by Whitehead-Hoag. The manufacturer's name appears on the lower reverse.
  
  
  There's currently a super nice example of this medal in the Stacks/Bowers Auction.
