1652 SHILNG Pine Tree Shilling, Large Planchet, Reversed N, MS65
NGC. Noe-4, W-720, Salmon 4-D, R.4. 72.6 gn. No Pellets at
Trunk. Reversed N in IN. First N reversed in ENGLAND. Noted in the
Ford catalog as "on a par for technical grade with both
Uncirculated Hain coins (ex: Roper and ex: Norweb) and far nicer
than Picker's. ... The top of the reverse seems scraped but this is
actually a result of the piece going through the roller dies,
elongating the letters in AND and the dots in the outer beaded
border above them. Struck from the broken state of the reverse with
die breaks forming in the left reverse field." The field break
somewhat resembles a narrow cauldron with flames flickering from
the top. The break lacks the unified upper "tail" found on the late
die state Noe-4.5. The "stretching" of upper obverse or reverse
design elements is encountered fairly often on Large Planchet Pine
Tree shillings, and helps make each piece unique, along with other
characteristics such as the irregular diameters and the degree of
"S" shaped wave.The present Gem is a magnificent example that, in our opinion, is equal to, or finer than the Norweb-Hain example, and finer than the first Ford coin, ex: Wurtzbach. This piece is far finer than the third Ford coin, a borderline Uncirculated example. The walnut-brown, dove-gray, and jade-green surfaces shimmer with luster and are devoid of remotely mentionable detractions. The centers retain the central horizontal wave characteristic of rocker press emission. The strike is crisp across all design elements, although portions of MAS and the N and W in NEW lack their tops due to a Boston Mint straight clip. A desirable contribution to either a variety or type set of Massachusetts silver. Listed on page 41 of the 2018 Guide Book.
