Celebrate America’s Bicentennial era with this striking 1973 U.S. Bicentennial Society “The Double Eagle” limited-edition decorative porcelain collector plate. The white plate features a richly detailed gold double-headed eagle at center, framed by an elaborate neoclassical scrollwork border in burnished gold, black, and warm bronze tones.
The reverse identifies the plate as the official symbol of the U.S. Bicentennial Society and lists its notable trustees, including Virginius Dabney, H. Lester Cooke, R. Buckminster Fuller, Gregory Peck, Samuel Eliot Morison, and C. Vann Woodward. This example is individually numbered 3454 of a limited edition of 5,000 and marked as an authorized issue of the U.S. Bicentennial Mint.
A handsome statement piece for a gallery wall, plate collection, library, office, Americana interior, or patriotic entertaining display. Its eagle motif, formal gilt decoration, and 1970s Bicentennial provenance also make it an especially fitting gift for collectors of American history, presidential and patriotic décor, commemorative ceramics, or vintage collectibles.
