Description

A silver fantasy shilling in the Massachusetts Pine Tree design, created by Elder and designated Noe-Y in the standard reference. PCGS lists this piece as Noe-Y and attributes it to Elder; it is a fantasy, a design that does not reproduce a genuine Massachusetts die. The genuine Pine Tree coins were struck in Boston from about 1667 to 1682, all dated 1652 (WIKI). This example is struck in silver. It is catalogued as Noe-Y. The genuine coin it imitates is listed in the catalog as 1652 Shilling Pine Tree - Large Planchet.
