I still consider it a Tree coin

Hit a new permission again been kinda quiet. Got a tone that was an 18 on the nox popped out what I thought was a piece of aluminum foil then saw the word NEW. And knew that it was a cut shilling and was shocked to say the least I'm leaning towards an Oak Tree maybe someone here might be able to ID it for me.

It definitely counts! That is such a nice piece of colonial era history. I think most of us on the forum would consider a Massachusetts coin a holy grail type find.

Such a crudely cut quarter that makes it a real beauty.
Congratulations on the silver, a showcase entry.

as cool as a pine tree shilling would be, a cut one is even cooler!

Could be part of a willow tree shilling, which would make it really rare!
