Description

1652 Pine Tree Shilling, XF40
Noe-25, Ex: Hain Family-Partrick

1652 Pine Tree Shilling, Small Planchet, XF40 NGC. CAC. Noe-25, W-890, Salmon 8-E, R.5. 64.7 grains. A pleasing gunmetal-gray shilling. The obverse is glossy, while the reverse exhibits a microgranular texture, as made. Struck slightly off center toward 7 o'clock, with the tops of the lower letters off the flan. The strike is generally crisp, although the right branches of the tree are lightly brought up. The finest of 11 examples in our notes are four XF examples.

The die state is usual for Noe-25 and features a break from the upper left corner of the first I in XII, reminiscent of the break from the clock on the backdated 1789 Mott store card. A second, smaller break is beneath the X, and a pair of narrow cracks pass through N DO. Listed on page 34 of the 2022 Guide Book.
Ex: Vlack Collection; Emerson Gaylord; Hain Family Collection (Stack's, 1/2002), lot 153; Donald G. Partrick Collection (Heritage, 1/2015), lot 5597.
