.999 pure silver coin from the U.S. Mint provides both a great investment and collectors' item for history buffs
Remembering yet another significant site in U.S. history, the next America the Beautiful series 5-oz silver coin commemorates the 47-day campaign, siege and defense of this strategic location along the Mississippi River. This stunning silver quarter is the 4 th in the America the Beautiful series to be released in 2011 and the 11 th overall.
For the reverse side of the coin, collectors will find a depiction of the U.S.S. Cairo, an ironclad gunboat, sailing up the Yazoo River during the battle. Being one of the first boats of its kind, the Cairo also became famous for being the first to be sunk by an electronically detonated torpedo.
After sitting at the bottom of the Yazoo River for nearly 100 years, the gunship was dug up and is now on display at the Vicksburg National Military Park in Mississippi.

personally important
Review by Mark | April 10, 2012
My great grandfather served in the 11th Minnesota regiment, and fought with Grant in the Western campaign. We have letters written by him from Shiloh and he might have fought at Vicksburg. He was wounded in Louisiana at the battle of Spanish Fort, the second to last battle of the Civil War.

Review by Zazenboy | October 16, 2011
Great looking coin, far nicer than than Gettysburg, Glacier, and Olympic 5 oz. That I procured from another authorized purchaser. Provident is going to be my supplier of choice for future 5 oz bullion releases! Fast ship, great service, and competitive fees.

a good option for silver bullion
Review by Bennett | October 15, 2011
Instead of opting for silver bars i went with this round. I was satisfied with its extreme shine and the great history on the coin. It did come in a nice plastic container to keep it clean. Just waiting for the gettysberg coin next. The shipping was fairly quick and discrete.
