Description

1652 Pine Tree Shilling, MS63
Small Planchet, Noe-17
Among Finest Certified

1652 Pine Tree Shilling, Small Planchet, MS63 NGC. Noe-17, W-840, Salmon 3-B, R.3. 72.1 grains. MS63 is an extraordinarily high grade for any Boston Mint variety. Our auction records show the two finest prior Heritage appearances of a Noe-17 Pine Tree shilling were in the AU53 and AU55 grades. The single finest certified at Stack's Bowers in recent years was graded AU58. The John J. Ford, Jr. specimens were graded Choice Extremely Fine and Extremely Fine. Among all Small Planchet Pine Tree shillings at NGC, regardless of die variety, the present lot is second-finest, trailing a solitary MS64 example. The weight is proper, the lavender and tan-brown surfaces are unblemished, and the centering is good. The lower portions of both sides show softness of impression, due to slightly out of parallel dies. Described in the Donald Groves Collection catalog as "the finest Noe 17 that we can recall having seen or handled." Listed on page 34 of the 2022 Guide Book.
Ex: Donald Groves [Partrick] Collection (Stack's, 11/1974), lot 294; Henry P. Kendall Foundation Collection; Baltimore Sale (Stack's Bowers, 3/2015), lot 2399.
