1840 Half Eagle, MS61
Scarce and Desirable Broad Mill Variety

1840 $5 Broad Mill MS61 NGC. Rich, yellow-gold surfaces are devoid of bothersome abrasions and cover well-struck devices. There are two types of 1840 half eagles: Broad Mill, with a wide rim and slightly larger diameter of 22.5mm, and Narrow Mill, with a narrow rim and a diameter of only 21.6mm. The former variety is found on the present offering, and is both more desirable due to its distinctive look as well as scarcer than the Narrow Mill variety that carried through the rest of the series.(Registry values: P5)
