Art Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 1865 What a history packed year that was. Holly cow! There's so much history that this coin could have participated in that it's almost too much to consider. Major battles in the Civil War Confederacy surrenders and the war is over. Abraham Lincoln is assassinated Booth is killed Assassination conspirators are hanged Jefferson David is captured Cornell University is created The Sultana sinks in the Mississippi killing 1700. Salvation Army founded Alice in Wonderland is published It's a big year. There are even more interesting happenings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 I heard a rumor that this 2 cent piece was used by US Grant to buy a bottle of bourbon to share with Lee at Appomattox. Of course, I don't know this to be a fact and history being what it is, it could have been Lee that used it to buy a bottle for Grant. 9.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
