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.
From The Siegel Collection.
