Description

NGC 1840 AU 58. Narrow Mill. The more common variety of the year, this Narrow Mill piece is in uncommonly fine condition and is the highest grade we have offered for sale since March. The fields are bright and prooflike, and the striking details are well defined in all areas. The abrasions one would normally associate with a coin of this grade are perhaps unfairly magnified by the prooflikeness seen in the fields. The most noticeable surface marks are a couple of pinscratches in the reverse field above the eagle's head.
