About This Item

Ft. Sumter

Decades of growing strife between North and South erupted in civil war on April 12, 1861, when Confederate artillery opened fire on this Federal Fort in Charleston Harbor... Fort Sumter surrendered 34 hours later... Union forces would try for nearly four years to take it back...

To commemorate Ft. Sumter that is now a National Monument, the first coin was minted...

If you ever have the chance to take the boat ride out to the Fort and see this monument, do so... It is well worth the money and the time...

This battle ground is etched in time, and now etched in silver for circulation at geocaches around the United States so that what so many fought for will not be forgotten...

This copy of the original "Fort Sumter Civil War Series #1" Geocoin is traveling around the world. It is a laser copy for circulation. The original will be displayed at local geo-caching events! Rules permit the circulation of a copy of the owner's original coin. The original is being showcased at present.

I'm very against copies of geocoins, you either want it to travel or you don't. But I really needed to drop off the actual geocoin I had, so I traded it. I will drop it off as soon as possible.
