<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 813226, member: 8959&quot;]A check of the design and devices of this coin reveals a match to the Noe-17 Variety, Small Planchet Pine Tree Shilling.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is nothing that tells me, as far as I can ascertain from the photos, that this coin is a fake. In fact to me it looks genuine. I am not an expert, far from it, but it looks OK to me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Check the diameter and weight: diameter should be 22-26 mm, and the weight 70-72 grains.</p><p>&nbsp; </p><p>I Believe that this coin has been clipped, this accounts for the absence of beading on the edge. Therefore, both the diameter, and specially the weight will be below the norm. </p><p><br /></p><p>If genuine, and IMHO there is a good chance that it is, it is a valuable coin. As the other have mentioned, expert appraisal is needed. </p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
