1652 Pine Tree Shilling, Small Planchet, Noe-26, W-900, R.5, AU50 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Ford. 73.6 grains. The shift from the rocker arm or roller press to the screw press is now credited for the change from large, thin planchets to smaller, thicker planchets. This well-centered and boldly struck Pine Tree shilling features attractive, steel-gray patination and sharply defined design elements on each side. Die cracks appear on the lower reverse. Listed on page 41 of the 2018 Guide Book.
