Description
Bold VF 1652 Large Planchet Pine Tree Shilling
1652 SHILNG Pine Tree Shilling, Large Planchet VF35 PCGS. Noe-1, Crosby 12-I, R.2. 66.2 grains. A smooth dove-gray representative that has crisp details despite even wear. The edges have several straight clips, these are as issued by the Boston Mint to conform with weight standards although most examples of Noe-1 are between 71 and 74 grains. One edge clip affects the M in MASATHVSETS, however, the upper obverse has an unusually large area of unclipped selvage. A later die state with breaks between the 16 in the date and near 3 o'clock on the reverse. Pine Tree Shillings are an important addition to any collection of Early American coinage, as they were a mainstay of east coast currency for nearly a century.(#23)Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 23, GSID# 9)
