Description

(1659) Lord Baltimore Sixpence, MS61
W-1060, Exceptional Quality

(1659) Lord Baltimore Sixpence MS61 NGC. Hodder 2-C, W-1060, R.5. Ex: Long Island Collection. Small Bust. The population of W-1060 sixpence approximately doubled when 18 examples appeared in a November 2002 Morton & Eden auction. They had resided undisturbed in a silver cylinder, presumably for centuries. Nonetheless, the issue remains very scarce, and is virtually unheard of in the present quality. Between the two leading grading services, the only other Mint State pieces are one MS62 example each at NGC and PCGS. This is a sharply struck representative with powder-blue centers and light golden-brown borders. Satiny and refreshingly unabraded. One slight curved clip at 5:30. Listed on page 35 of the 2022 Guide Book.
From The Long Island Collection, Part III.

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2U3K, PCGS# 33, Greysheet# 379)
