Strike Type
Coin Details
Description
A distinctive die variety of the Pine Tree shilling featuring a monogrammed or interlocked "NE" (New England) in the design. Pine Tree coins were the last Massachusetts design, made from about 1667 until the mint closed in 1682. The first shillings were struck on broad, thin planchets with a rocker press; from about 1675 the shillings were struck on smaller, thicker planchets with a screw press. Sixpences and threepences were made alongside them, and all are dated 1652. This is Noe-8 (Salmon 7-E, W-740), on which the N and E of NEW share an upright stroke. Cataloged as PCGS #45373.
