Endearing Mid-Grade Noe-14 Oak Tree Shilling Popular Spiny Tree Variety 1652 Oak Tree Shilling. Noe-14, Salmon 11a-Gi, W-530. Rarity-4. Spiny Tree. VF-25 (PCGS). 69.4 grains. This is a pleasingly toned example whose otherwise dove gray surfaces reveal vivid powder blue and pinkish-apricot undertones as the coin dips into a light. Well centered on a generally round planchet, only the tops of the letters in the word IN are off the flan, the upper reverse border flush to the top of the letters NGLA in ENGLAND. The surfaces are smooth in hand with all design elements bold to sharp save for the tree and the letter A in MASATHVSETS, the latter soft yet discernible and the former with some of the branches indistinct. All in all, an inviting VF survivor from this distinct and popular die marriage. Provenance: From the Collection of Larry L. Terrell. Acquired from Bowers and Merena Galleries, November 1992. PCGS# 20. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
