Lot 2
Pine Tree Sixpence 1652. PCGS graded AU-50. The recorded weight on this one is 31.9 grains, and this is noted on the PCGS insert. This appears to be Noe-33, with the two pellets that flank the tree. As always seen, the coin is not well centered on the reverse (tree side), with most of the lettering off at the top. The obverse (dated side) is well centered and the strike is sharp. Examination will note a small disturbance on the D of ENGLAND. Lovely silvery gray in color with otherwise problem free surfaces and rims. PCGS has graded 2 as such, with just 5 coins graded higher (MS-64 is the best).
Estimated Value $4,000 - 5,000.
