For the Confederacy, it can be argued that the most significant event for its fledgling navy took place on June 30, 1861. It was the date that the CSS Sumter ran the Union blockade on New Orleans. The ship's captain was Raphael Semmes. Captain Semmes thus began his career as a blockade runner and a Union commerce raider.

Most of the Confederate States were located south of the Mason-Dixon line. These states included (dates they seceded from the Union):South Carolina (December 20, 1860)Mississippi (January 9, 1861)Florida (January 10, 1861)Alabama (January 11, 1861)Georgia (January 19, 1861)Louisiana (January 26, 1861)Texas (February 1, 1861)Virginia (April 17, 1861; ratified by voters May 23, 1861)Arkansas (May 6, 1861)Tennessee (May 7, 1861; ratified by voters June 8, 1861)North Carolina (May 20, 1861)The Mason-Dixon line was at 390 43' N (below PA) and along the West boundary of DE.
The first world war and stock market crash were the most significant.
By April 1861, nearly all forts, post offices, and other federal buildings in the South were controlled by the Confederate states. After the secession of several Southern states from the Union, Confederate forces took over these federal properties, as tensions escalated leading to the Civil War. The most notable example was Fort Sumter in South Carolina, which was attacked by Confederate forces on April 12, 1861, marking the beginning of the conflict.

My first guess is that it's a copy, because most genuine Confederate halves are quite rare and are already in collections. You'd have to take it to a dealer or appraiser for a first hand inspection in order to be certain.
The authentic coins have a value of over $100,000.00 each. The confederate cent has mass reproductions made to sell as souvenir's most are marked by the word copy on the coin.If you have one of these coins, it's a fake.
One of the most important historical events in the history of South Carolina was in April of 1861. There in the Charleston Harbor were several Federal forts. At 4:10 AM on April 13th 1861, Confederate cannons opened fire on the Federal fort of Sumter. This attack sparked the beginning of the US Civil War. At the time of the attack and the fort's surrender, no formal declarations of war were forth coming from either Washington DC or the Confederate capital of Montgomery, Alabama. The formalities would come later, but clearly a conflict of great proportions was underway.
Most significant where? If you mean in the US, it was the end of Reconstruction. That meant the elimination of post-Civil War disabilities imposed on the former Confederate states, thereby marking the start of the modern era in US history. This is the reason many college history courses use that date. A typical and common example might be 'US History Since 1877'.
the crime itself.
