Lot 6
1652 Massachusetts Oak Tree Shilling IN at Bottom Noe-7 Rarity-5 PCGS Genuine, V. Glossy medium silver on the devices blending to darker gray in protected areas. The surfaces are smooth and there are no notable marks. The weight is a bit light at 63.8 grains and portions of the legend are off the planchet, so some minor clipping must have occurred. The date and denomination are bold but the Oak Tree is nearly invisible thanks to the very late die state, clearly later than either of the Ford examples of the variety. Listed on page 39 in the "Redbook." Estimated Value $1,000-UP
