Well that's not as easy a question as it seems. I've been in contact with a few of the best colonial coin guys in the business. First off when it comes to the Mass silvers in an auction setting they normally go a bit higher than the book values. I've seen some in similar condition that have gone between $4000-$7000. I guess it just depends who's in the room on a certain day and how badly they want it. The other thing to take into account is that mine is holed. Luckily it's a pretty nice neat hole that's small and colonial coinage isn't affected as much by the hole as more modern coinage. So after all that rambling it's hard to nail it down but likely between $1500-$3000. But this one stays with me for the rest of my life. If I ever am lucky enough to find a New England shilling that's worth $100,000 that might be hard to hang on to lolnapascores said:
