- A Second Mint State Newman 1-C Continental Dollar 1776 Continental Dollar. Newman 1-C, W-8445. Rarity-3. CURENCY. Pewter. MS-62 (NGC). A lovely Mint State example of this classic early American type, both sides exhibit dominant pewter gray patina. Direct lighting calls forth brighter silver highlights in the fields that are associated with flashes of satiny mint luster. The strike is generally well centered on the planchet, both sides with bold to sharp detail throughout the design that includes some of the finer elements of the sun face on the obverse. Otherwise smooth enough to support a Choice Uncirculated grade, a few small areas of light surface roughness on the reverse are noted for accuracy. If the Newman 1-C Continental dollar in the preceding lot gets away, we offer bidders a second opportunity to acquire an endearing Uncirculated example of this historic issue. NGC Census: 12; 17 finer (MS-66 * finest). PCGS# 791. NGC ID: 2AYN. Click here for certification details from NGC.
