Description
1776 Continental Dollar, XF40
CURENCY, Newman 1-C
Struck in Pewter
1776 $1 Continental Dollar, CURENCY, Pewter XF40 PCGS. Newman
1-C, W-8445, R.3. While technically a pattern, the Continental
dollar is a perpetually popular item because of its close
association with the American Revolution. It is believed these
dollars were introduced to serve in place of the paper dollar
during the latter part of 1776. Strikings are known in pewter (or
tin), brass, silver, and copper. This variety features the CURENCY
misspelling. The reverse rings are circles composed of thick lines
rather than dots. A period, not a comma, is present after AMERICAN.
This example displays medium to dark gunmetal-gray color and
appears to be slightly buckled from 10 o'clock to 4 o'clock. Listed
on page 87 of the 2017 Guide Book.Ex: New York Signature (Heritage, 7/2002), lot 5765.
