1652 Massachusetts Pine Tree Shilling Noe-16 R2 Small Planchet VF25

Choice glossy light to medium gray and steel with lighter steel toning on the devices. Smooth and quite nice but the planchet is a bit too small to accommodate the legends (probably encountered some clipping when in circulation). Fortunately the Pine Tree, date, and denomination are complete and bold. The only mark is a thin nick right of the E in MASATHVSETS. An attractive representative of an important time for numismatics in Colonial America. Weight 46.2 grains.
