The 2013 Canada Silver Bald Eagle Protecting Her Nest 1 Ounce Proof coin is certified to be 99.99% pure silver with a diameter of 38 millimeters and a metal weight of 31.39 grams. The reverse image by Canadian artist Claudio D'Angelo features a beautiful mother eagle keeping an eye on her surroundings, with wings extended, while perched at the edge of her nest where her two eaglets are nestled in. The detailed description by the Royal Canadian Mint states "The reverse image features a female bald eagle protecting her two young eaglets in their treetop nest. The female eagle dominates the center of the image. Viewed from behind, her left eye turned warily to the viewer, she raises her long left wing in a protective stance. Her snowy tail feathers, dark body and distinctive head are engraved in stunning detail. The mother sits at the edge of her large nest, which is nestled among the boughs of a high treetop. The intricate weaving of twigs and branches is rendered in painstaking detail and accentuated with a combination of polishes. The head and tail of the mother as well as the delicate feathers of the baby birds, have been given a soft matte finish that stands proud against the brilliant polished background."

In addition to the eagle design, the reverse of the coin also includes inscriptions CANADA 2013 and 20 DOLLARS. The obverse of the coin features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, along with inscriptions ELIZABETH II and D.G. REGINA. This coin also features unique edge lettering, with FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR 1 OZ engraved around the edge of the coin.
