DaveWcoins

1652 Pine Tree Sixpence. PCGS graded Very Fine-30.

Noe-33a, Salmon 2-B, considered to be rarity-5. The variety with Pellets at Trunk. Well centered, unlike the majority of the pine tree sixpences in existence. Gray-gold toning, with the velvety sheen that you should look for when purchasing Massachusetts silver coinage. Listed on page 39 of the 2015 Redbook. $8500.




1788 So 8 Escudos Gold. NGC graded AU53.

Santiago, Chile mint; DA Assayer. Fresh lemon gold color with slightly deepening coppery toning near the rims. About 30% cartwheel luster remains on the obverse and 50% on the reverse. These Eight Escudos are what the pirates of yore were seeking -- Doubloons, Matey! They are impressive (larger diameter than a $20 gold coin), were actually used in early America, and are wicked cheap compared to their US counterparts. $1985.
