1652 OAK TREE SHILLING NOE-3 'VERY RARE'

Hi All, I haven't been out hunting lately, got a couple snowstorms up here in NH, and it's been cold & windy :-\
Yesterday, I braved the weather and returned to the site where I found my Pine Tree Shilling. within 10 minutes I found another Mass Shilling! This looks like an Oak Tree, it was setting just under the surface among the rocks, tree side up. as with most of my surface finds, the side facing up is toasted, I can still see the "M" of Masathvsets, and a few of the spikey branches. The Reverse is a little better, date & XII clear,
(which isn't the minting date, for political reasons, most Mass coinage used this date from 1660-1690, I think the Oaks were 1670s)
you can read about this interesting story here: http://www.coins.nd.edu/ColCoin/ColCoinContents/Contents01.html
Anyone know what this toasty 22mm Copper might be?
thanks to Dwayne Suehno for the Woods Hibernia Farthing ID :wink:
Well, Just shows there's quite a few of these old silvers left out there!
A Big Thanks To Mike at WWW.WOODLANDETECTORS.COM , Without his help I wouldn't even be Diggin!
HH Everyone! Herbie. :hello:

Jeff,
I certainly understand.
I only took one set of pics as found, she's sorely lacking detail. :laughing7:
My Pine Tree is still up and one banner per year is plenty for me.
(March is my 3rd MDing Anniversary :occasion18:
Thanks to everyone who nominated me & my Oak :wink:
Best Digs All! :thumbsup:

Hi IP,
I'm doing nothing to this coin except water soak :wink:
just took a different pic, (including cat hair :laughing9:)
and gave it some photoshop tweaking.
Sheesh, if PCGS slabbed this one as genuine, I should send mine in...
I figured my example was too worn to get the slab.
This one I would call toast: http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1145&lotNo=8003
