Pine Tree Shilling Value Help Appreciated

Machodoc

I've got a lovely example of this one, PCGS AU 53. I don't see any approximate value in any CDN publications and was wondering if anyone here might be able to ballpark it for me. It's a great example with significant luster remaining. Thanks!

There are 6 different variations listed in the red book. In AU, they range from 9000-14000

Grading is uneven on these, and value is as much dependent on look, centering, coloring, strike, etc. as on the numerical grade.

Sight unseen, and assuming a common die variety, I'd say $6,500 - 11,000.

$14,000 is 'optimistic'.

Much appreciated. Mine is one of the large planchet types.
