Show your patriotism with the American Eagle Pin. This collectible features a bald eagle with its wings outstretched. From the eagle's perspective, it holds a bundle of thirteen arrows in its left talon referring to the thirteen original states. The right talon holds an olive branch. This symbolizes that the United States of America has "a strong desire for peace, but will always be ready for war." The olive branch is usually depicted with thirteen leaves and thirteen olives, again representing the thirteen original states. The eagle has its head turned towards the olive branch, said to symbolize a preference for peace. The eagle clutches the motto "E Pluribus Unum" ("Out of Many, One") in its beak.
