1652 Pine Tree Shilling. Large Planchet. Noe-10, Salmon 8-Diii, W-750. Rarity-3. Without Pellets at Trunk. EF-45 (PCGS).
71.3 grains. A visually intriguing piece, the first feature that catches one's attention is a straight, jagged planchet clip at the bottom of the planchet (relative to the impression from the dies). As such, the lower peripheral features on both sides are absent, waviness to the planchet also resulting in softness to the second letter A in MASATHVSETS and the word AN on the reverse. In fact, the overall planchet shape is irregular with only the right border -- relative to the obverse -- displaying appreciable curvature, other sides quite straight, pronounced "corner" at 10 o'clock relative to the same side. Border through the final letter S in MASATHVSETS, letters EW in NEW, but other peripheral features that are present are quite bold. The tree, date and denomination XII are all sharp for the grade, the entire package dressed in original toning of pale mauve and olive-gray. There are few marks of consequence, the in hand appearance quite smooth for the grade. With rustic charm that specialists in Massachusetts Bay Colony silver find so appealing, this handsome Noe-10 will certainly find many willing buyers.
PCGS# 45370. NGC ID: 2ARV.
