Art Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Toss up between 2 & 4. I like the boat because not too many things commemorating the Civil War era have boats on them. I prefer 4 because I'd rather stay away from the people representations on the coins. They never seem to translate well from the drawing to the 3d coin. So I'm going with 4.

thedeadpoint Posted February 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Unfortunately, none of these are how I associate Vicksburg. I think of a whole city hiding in hillside caves to escape the siege. I don't know the significance of the USS Cairo at all but it's a good deal better than the other three generic designs.
