Description
Attractive 1652 Noe-2 Pine Tree Shilling
Large Planchet, AU50
1652 SHILNG Pine Tree Shilling, Large Planchet, Crosby 4-F,
Noe-2, W-700, Salmon 2-C, R.5, AU50 PCGS. CAC. No pellets at
trunk. Sometimes called the "Straight Tree" obverse, the tree has
parallel branches that define a diamond shape. This lovely AU
example has a slight bend from the rocker press used to strike
these silver pieces. Certain aspects of the design are somewhat
indistinct from shallow dies that were not deeply engraved, but
this piece is well-centered with all of the peripheral legends
complete. This specimen exhibits deep steel-blue and pale gold
toning on each side, with considerable luster still visible. Minor
planchet clips are typical of the Noe-2 variety and probably took
place at the time of minting, perhaps as a weight control measure.
