Coin Challenge - Bird

Through the years coins from the US Mint have contained many different birds, not just eagles. Which coin shows this long-tailed bird? 

What is the coin? Is it silver, gold or another metal? Did the coin circulate or is it a commemorative coin? Is it both? What is the denomination - a penny, nickel, dime, quarter, half dollar, dollar or another coin from early coinage? Is the design from the obverse or reverse of the coin? (Scroll down for hints.)

coin challenge - bird

Hints:

  1. It's a commemorative coin.
  2. The coin could be found in pocket change (but, when?). 

Hints from the atlcoin commentary blog on August 3:

  1. This bird is hunted for sport and for food
  2. The coin’s design also includes two wheat ears

Those are strong hints! Do you recognize the coin?
