HEROES AND FLAGS OF THE CIVIL WAR  COMMEMORATIVE COIN
The Civil War pitted American against American, state against state, and hero against hero.
General Robert E. Lee left the Union Army when his beloved Virginia seceded. He bravely commanded the Southern forces as they fought under the Battle Flag of the Confederacy.
General Ulysses S. Grant took command of the Union forces to deliver battlefield victories that would preserve the United States,leading his own men to fight bravely under the Stars and Stripes.
Both men were brave soldiers, beloved leaders and great American heroes.
Meticulously designed by American Mint - in conjunction with The National Civil War Museum - for the Sesquicentennial of the Civil War,
this massive 2" coin features a highly detailed engraving of Generals Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S. Grant along with the Union and Confederate flags on the obverse.
