1652 Massachusetts Oak Tree 6 Pence Noe-16 Rarity-5 VF30. Type with IN on the Reverse. Frosty light silvery steel and medium gray. The planchet is a bit uneven and there is an obvious void at the N in NEW on the reverse, but the Oak Tree is complete and clear. Struck slightly off center to K-7 leaving much of the legend off the planchet, but the date and denomination are bold. Overall quite nice for this scarce denomination. Listed on page 39 in the "Redbook." Weight 33.6 grains.
Estimated Value $3,000-UP.
