Lot #8 1652 Massachusetts Oak Tree Sixpence IN on Obverse Noe-22 Rarity-5. (2.12 gr)

Description:

1652 Massachusetts Oak Tree Sixpence IN on Obverse Noe-22 Rarity-5. (2.12 gr). ANACS graded VF 20 Details. Damaged. Glossy medium to dark gray with lighter steel gray toning on the devices. Both sides are unevenly worn thanks to a few dents and resulting bends in the planchet, and a glass reveals fine scratches that are mostly lost in the toning plus two lines of tiny impressions left of the date. The date is easily readable but the V in the denomination is lost. The obverse (tree side) is off center to K-1 but the reverse is reasonably well centered on the planchet. Far from perfect but still an acceptable example of this tough denomination of the Oak Tree type. The attribution is noted on the ANACS label. Estimated Value $750 - UP
