P. Scott Rubin: The 1776 Continental Dollar struck in Pewter with the word CURRENCY mis-spelled CURRENCEY is an extremely rare coin with four specimens known to exist. Eric Newman gave this die variety the designation N 4-D. The word CURRENCY was misspelled on the 1776 Continental Dollars twice: once as CURENCY and again as displayed on this variety, CURRENCEY. This die was later reworked to correct the spelling error, thus even though there are five different Newman obverse numbers for 1776 Continental Dollars only four individual dies were used to produce the series.

This variety is only known struck in Pewter and the finest example is the only known specimen known in Mint State condition.

It is interesting to note that the Continental Congress authorized paper currency for circulation on February 17, 1776 and was the only issue that included fractions of a Dollar (1/6, 1/3, 1/2 and 2/3 of a Dollar), and that the same misspelling of Currency as Currencey appears on the 1/6 Dollar. It is also interesting that for the 1776 Continental Dollar coins there is no known Continental Congress authorization for their issue.
