1652 Pine Tree Shilling. Small Planchet. Noe-29, Salmon 11-F, W-930. Rarity-3. Genuine--Filed Rims (PCGS).Medium steel gray with deeper golden highlights. Any filing at the borders was done decades -- and decades -- ago, with no traces evident to the inquiring eye save for some faint lines resembling an old scrape below the pine tree. Natural obverse rim flaw at 3 oclock, no other marks visible to the unassisted eye, reverse with some weakness at 4 to 6 oclock peripherally, rim flaw manifests itself at 9 oclock on this side. Far nicer than the PCGS qualifier suggests, but dont take our word for it, instead, have a good look and then bid accordingly. VF Details.From the Newmark Collection.
