Description: $1, S-918 SH531. Charleston played a crucial role during the American Civil War. As a key location, it became a battleground for control between the U.S. Army and the Confederate States Army. The conflict commenced in Charleston Harbor in 1861 and concluded shortly after U.S. forces regained control of the city in 1865. In the wake of Abraham Lincoln's election, the South Carolina General Assembly voted on December 20, 1860, to secede from the United States, marking it as the first state to take such action. Subsequently, on December 27, the U.S. Army garrison at Castle Pinckney capitulated to the state militia. On January 9, 1861, cadets from the Citadel fired upon the USS Star of the West as it approached Charleston Harbor. The initial major battle of the war took place on April 12, 1861, when coastal artillery commanded by General P. G. T. Beauregard targeted Fort Sumter, which was held by the U.S. Army. Following a 34-hour siege, Major Robert Anderson ultimately surrendered the fort. Item ordered may not be exact piece shown. All original and authentic.
