Description
1776 Continental Dollar, Unc Details
Pewter, CURENCY, Newman 1-C
1776 $1 Continental Dollar, CURENCY, Pewter, N. 1-C, W-8445, R.3
-- Tooled -- PCGS Genuine. Unc Details. Celebrated numismatist
Eric P. Newman believed that the Continental dollars were pattern
dollars for the Continental Congress, to replace the Continental
currency then in circulation. More recently, Erik Goldstein and
David McCarthy proposed that the Continental dollars were
commemorative medals issued in Europe after the end of the
Revolutionary War. The popularity of the series is unabated. Newman
1-C is an early variety that spells CURRENCY with one letter R
instead of two. This is a high-grade silver-gray example with
attractive surfaces save for marks on the ON and EN in CONTINENTAL,
and a moved upper crossbar on the R in CURENCY. Our consignor
offers this 1776-dated piece in celebration of the United States'
upcoming 250th anniversary. Listed on page 23 of the 2026 Guide
Book.
