Colonials 1776 $1 Continental Dollar, CURENCY, Pewter, Newman 1-C, W-8445, R.3, AU53 PCGS. Although Eric P. Newman suggested that the Continental dollar was a pattern for a Continental Congress dollar coin, some researchers have concluded it is a private commemorative medal issued in Europe shortly after the Revolutionary War. Many Continental dollars have oxidation spots or other problems, but the present lightly circulated example displays ample remaining luster and impressive eye appeal. A later die state with a break connecting the GI in FUGIO. Among the 100 Greatest U.S. Coins.
