Description
The idiom “WHEN PIGS FLY,” is apparently derived from a centuries-old Scottish proverb.? It is an adynaton, a way of saying that something will never happen. The phrase is often used for humorous effect, to scoff at over-ambition. There are numerous variations on the theme; when an individual with a reputation for failure finally succeeds, onlookers may sarcastically claim to see a flying pig.

- Obverse: ?A winged and happy pig flying through a sky full of billowy clouds.
- Reverse: Large Intaglio Mint logo surrounded by plain border reading ?TWO TROY OUNCES? above and ?.999 FINE SILVER,? flanked by stars.
