Abraham Lincoln's famous top hat has huge historical significance. Lincoln's hat symbolized that he was a common man and a man of the people. Lincoln wore the hat during both of his inaugurations, during his debates with Stephen Douglas, and during his assassination. There have been books written about the hat. It was reported that the hat once saved his life. THE HAT IS A SYMBOL FOR EVERYTHING LINCOLN STOOD FOR. He was one of the greatest presidents the country has ever had. He lead the North in its mission to preserve the Union and save America. He freed the African Americans who were forced to be slaves. ABRAHAM LINCOLNS WAS ON OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FIGURES IN AMERICAN HISTORY AND HIS FAMOUS TOP HAT SHOULD ACCOMPANY HIM ON THE 5 DOLLAR BILL FOR EVERYONE TO SEE.
