In the background, a section of the Vicksburg National Cemetery is also shown. The coin design captures the historical significance of the park, emphasizing its role during the American Civil War.
Vicksburg National Military Park, located in Vicksburg, Mississippi, preserves the site of the Battle of Vicksburg, a crucial engagement during the Civil War. The battle led to the Union's control of the Mississippi River, effectively dividing the Confederacy. The U.S.S. Cairo, depicted on the coin, was a Union ironclad warship that played a role in the Union's victory at Vicksburg.
