1652 SHILNG Oak Tree Shilling, IN at Bottom, MS64 NGC. Noe-5, W-470, Salmon 3-D, R.2. Ex: Donald G. Partrick Collection. 67.7 grains. A satiny, deep gunmetal-gray example with beautiful, original surfaces. The strike is crisp except at the top of the tree, which is at the crest of the S-wave characteristic of rocker press emission.

The familiar die state for Noe-5, which features a heavy horizontal obverse break at 12 o'clock, prominent vertical breaks on the right reverse, a less conspicuous vertical break below the 2 in the date, and chipping within the N and M in AN DOM. Listed on page 41 of the 2017 Guide Book.
