Lot Description

Well struck and well centered. A remarkable example with lovely natural antique toning. There are a few slight marks in the upper branches of the oak tree, but generally the surface is excellent, indeed, outstanding for this very early silver colonial coin. On this variety of Breen-21, we see the N in IN reversed; there is a strong tree which has a double trunk; OM is directly below the XIII and crowded together. A wonderful opportunity for the Colonial collector! Pop 6 with 12 finer(PCGS # 20) </B>. <BR>Estimated Value $14,000 - 16,000.
