War for Southern Independence.

Money of the Civil War - Replica Coins From The War Between the States.
I just picked it up off of eBay so this is the seller's pic. It will be interesting to research.
Thomas C. Hall served in the Indiana 9th Infantry company B as a private and in the Illinois 9th Calvary company G as a Corporal and left it as a Sergeant.
I found this information using the database of general index cards found here.
There is always the chance that this piece is a fake. I'll be better able to determine that once it is in hand.
Closest I could get- struck in New Orleans in the final year before the War Between the States.

<< <i>Actually, I think the official name of the war is: over. The South lost. Respectfully, John Curlis >>
Some people who don't know any better might say something like that.
Those who know better would say that the government won while the people lost .

Have you seen what Confederate paper money is bringing these days? Wait until the 150th anniversary of the Civil War in 2011.

Halfhunter; Really?!?!?! As a long time lurker on this site due to my love of coins. I bite my lip and stay quite, conceding the fact the this forum would slant a "little" to the right seeing the fact that a large proportion of coin collectors are older, middle class(and up) white guys who tend to be over whelming conservative. I feel you sir have taken this too far and injected your minority held bitter opinion with a thin vale of being coin related and are an embarrassment to this forum(IMHO). Although it is a function of a forum to exchange ideas and spur debate it is important to try to be on topic and visit topic related forums to communicate between similar minded people. There is many southern pride sites all the way down too racist slums for you to "celebrate" your holiday depending where you fall on the spectrum. Please talk coins and leave inflammatory comments to your self. John Coyle
Mr. John Coyle
1. I don't know where you can say that anything that I said was racist.
2. Maybe you need to study your US history. The war wasn't fought over the slavery issue.
If that's what you are inferring.
3. I was only joking around. If you didn't realize that then you sir are the one with the problem.
4. I will say what I want when I want until someone with more power than you bans me from this forum.
5. Hope you have a great holier-than-thou day.

John

I'd like to apologize to anyone else that might have been offended by my light hearted banter.
Can I not be proud of my southern heritage without being hailed as a racist?
I don't believe that since I've been posting to this board that I've shown any disrespect to any member here.

I am well aware of the fact that it was a war of State vs Federal rights, but it is a slightly a naive view not to remember one of the big rights they wanted was to let the states decide for it's self if slaves were OK or not. As for point one I never said you were racist I left it up to you to (fall on which side of the spectrum). That brings up my main point, you inferred that I was calling you a racist as I inferred you support 100% of the confederate views which is most likely untrue. But when you refer to a "holiday" which deeply divides a people and a large % just find ridiculous. It invites the post to turn into what it was starting to with comments like "the south will rise again","the war of the rebellion" or "war of norther aggression". I'm not saying it is your fault but a lot of these "holidays" are more of a way to thumb there noses at the north and keep there ideals alive and taught then any real observance of a day or moment or group of noble people. The real movers and shakers of the failed independence attempt were wealthy land owners worried about there bottom lines if the growing abolitionist's movement in the north had prevailed. Most of the southern soldiers(and most of the northern since you could buy out of the draft) were too poor to own slaves and worry about land tariffs and taxes. ALL of this aside I think no matter how you feel on either side I stand by my one original point that it is too heavy of an issue for a coin forum and is too hot not to offend some, no matter how it's stated and should be left out of a COIN forum.

If it isn't politically correct, the far left will scream and rant. I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner on this thread.

<< <i>Sorry, but it is a coin forum and we can discuss confederate coins, and coins made by the federal government honored battles and men who fought on both sides. If we joke a little about yanks and rebels along the way, big deal. >>

Doesn't look OT to me at all.
War of southern arrogance is what I call it.
Those traitor rebels got what they deserved. Smacked down good and hard.
(can't resist needling those old southern romantics).

Yeah it was great that the only way the north could insure a victory for a centralized government the first income tax which your hero lincoln copied from his friend marx,despite outnumbering a bunch of farm boys by 4-1, was the systematic murder of old people, women and children, especially in Georgia. That "victory" single handedly destroyed perhaps the most important aspect of the Constitution.
Now that's something to be real proud of.

You have no case. You already failed the course.
The study of Numismatics, so termed from the Greek word Numisma, meaning “legal money” is the science pertaining to the coins and monies of all times, places and peoples, considered especially from their historical and artistic aspects, and by extension numismatic science embraces also the most important branches of archaeology, being an unfathomable source of precise knowledge concerning bygone persons and events, who albeit their living importance would have left but few traces behind them but for the coins which bear their names and effigies.
