Local coin collage recalls Civil War reunion in Gettysburg
A fragment from a Gulf-region paper describes a half dollar coin minted by Pennsylvania State Gammaan in Gettysburg Pa. The obverse features a Union and Confederate soldier with United States of America Blue and Gray Reunion inscriptions and the reverse shows the U S seal and Stars and Bars. It notes unity and strength with oak and laurel accents. The piece also touches on campaign ethics, recounting Jim Daly of Walker County Alabama declining a sheriff bid citing friend pressure and offering a blunt view of political horoscopes. A separate brief recalls a St. Louis burglar who freed a pet from a cage before fleeing.
