1652 Pine Tree Shilling

Noe-20, Salmon 6-B, W-860 variety, Small Planchet type. Considered to be High Rarity-6. A rare and infrequently seen variety in this series. With a distinctive obverse here in a late state with myriad die cracks, married to the same reverse used on the much more common Noe-16. This is just the third example of this variety we’ve ever had, and this nice coin gray VF is the most completely struck of the trio.
