1652 Oak Tree Threepence, XF45
Noe-27.1.1 Discovery Coin
Ex: Clarke-Boyd-Partrick

1652 Oak Tree Threepence, No IN on Obverse, Noe-27.1.1, W-300, Salmon 5-Aii, R.5, XF45 PCGS. 16.6 grains. The discovery coin for Noe-27.1.1. For its 1968 auction appearance, New Netherlands noted that the present coin was intermediate between Noe-26 and Noe-27. It had the die break at EW, removed for Noe-27, but the 6, 2, and EWEN differ from Noe-26. The 1 and 5 differ from Noe-27. It was listed by Ford as "Noe-26.8," then renumbered by Picker in his 1976 ANS article in Studies on Money in Early America. On this discovery piece, lavender borders frame lightly toned centers. Unmarked and pleasing with small flan flaws below the 6 in the date and above the E in the obverse legend. The strike shows softness on the right obverse and left reverse. Listed on page 35 of the 2024 Guide Book.
