Salmon 1-A Large Planchet Pine Tree Shilling
Rare Flip-Over Double Strike
Ex: Robert Martin Collection

1652 Pine Tree Shilling, Large Planchet, Salmon 1-A -- Flip-Over Double Struck -- VF30 NGC. Noe 1, W-690, R.2. 69.6 grains. Die orientation: 345º. Frank flip over double strikes of Large Planchet Pine Tree shillings are rarely seen, and this attractive example is as choice as one might hope to find. It exhibits light gray surfaces with rich gray-brown toning in the peripheral areas. The tall hand-cut planchet displays both strikes very clearly, each being fairly well-centered, the second almost perfectly, with only the top of AND on the reverse slightly excluded. The lower obverse displays the letters LAND and other details from the reverse, while the upper reverse shows VSE and other details from the obverse die.
Listed on page 36 of the 2023 Guide Book.
