1652 SHILNG Pine Tree Shilling, Large Planchet
<B>1652 SHILNG Pine Tree Shilling, Large Planchet MS62 NGC.</B></I> Noe-4.5, R.5. 74.1 grains, heavier than any of the three Hain Family examples. The open left side of the O in DOM identifies this Richard Picker subvariety of the popular "Backwards N." The first N in ENGLAND is reversed, which demonstrates the inexperience of early American die engravers. Small mint-made clips are at 1 and 4 o'clock, and a slightly larger clip is at 7 o'clock. A lustrous example with lovely green-gray and ice-blue patina. Well struck in the centers, and most peripheral letters are also bold. Mildly wavy from a couple of small marks on the beaded circle about the tree. Listed on page 37 of the 2007 <I>Guide Book.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
