  Numismatic Association (ANA) presents a 3-day numismatic
  tour of the American Civil War. This is a once-in-a-lifetime
  opportunity to be immersed in the turmoil of the single greatest
  event that shaped America and in the official and non-official
  money spawned by the conflict. Learn from specialist David
  Schenkman about encased postage stamps, Civil War tokens,
  Confederate money, and sutler tokens ? how and why they
  were made and used.   Tour six Civil War Battlefield sites:
  Harpers Ferry, Antietam, Manassas I & II, Fredericksburg,
  Chancellorsville, lead by professional numismatist and battlefield
  tour guide Colonel Steven Ellsworth, a graduate of the National
  War College in Washington D.C., and the National Defense
  University and a direct descendant of Colonel Elmer Ellsworth,
  the first Union officer killed in the War. Steve's broad
  perspective offers valuable insights into tactical, strategic, and
  political aspects of the Civil War.
