The Large Tree variety. Frosty medium gray with lighter silver on the highpoints. Struck on a large planchet and the only flaw is a fissure at the first S in MASATHVSETS. A beautiful piece with just a hint of friction on the very highest points of the devices. The date and tree are bold and most of the legend is clear. A premium example of this very rare variety, and it comes with a superb provenance. The attribution and Garrett-Salmon Collection provenance are noted on the NGC label. Listed on page 36 in the 2023 "Redbook." Weight 70.2 grains.
