Eric Pfeiffer Newman (May 25, 1911 – November 15, 2017) was an American numismatist.
He wrote several "works about early American coins and paper money considered the standards on their subjects", as well as hundreds of articles.
Newman sold his coins over auctions in 2013–2014 for over $70 million and used most of that money to fund the Newman Numismatic Education Society and its Newman Numismatic Portal to "make the literature and images of numismatics, particularly American numismatics, available to everyone on a free and forever basis."
