1652 6PENCE Pine Tree Sixpence, Pellets at Trunk, XF40 PCGS. Crosby 1-A, Noe-33, Salmon 2-B, R.3. An interesting transitional piece for the die state specialist. The obverse is canted upward, which is a characteristic of the early state known as Noe 33 (Salmon 2-B). The reverse, however, shows an advanced die crack between 1 and 6 that is generally found with the later state Noe-33a (Salmon 2*-B), which is usually encountered with a realigned obverse. This is a well-struck and accurately graded piece with good coloration and little in the way of problems. Listed on page 41 of the 2018 Guide Book.
