"1776" (1783) Continental Dollar. Newman 2-C, W-8455. Rarity-3. CURRENCY, Pewter. VG-8 (PCGS).
Really a charming example, and also a highly desirable one for what it is -- a more affordable Continental dollar that offers a rare accessible entry point into a type that has maintained in historic significance and numismatic appeal despite recent discoveries concerning its creation. While far from perfect, the surfaces retain enough detail to allow full appreciation of the design. The obverse peripheral features are quite bold, in fact, as are those in the center of the reverse. As a more affordable type example, this Continental dollar certainly has few rivals in today's market, especially since it is wholesome enough to have secured a "straight grade" from PCGS. Sure to find many eager buyers, and also see spirited bidding at auction.
Provenance: From the Mocatta Collection.
PCGS# 794. NGC ID: 2AYT.
