4.8mm, 7mm, 9mm, 11mm and 13mm.

The Type 2 Naglers released several years after the Type 1's, were:-

12mm, 16mm and 20mm

The Type 2 Naglers significantly alleviated the Kidney Beaning and Blackout issues associated with the Type 1 Naglers.

While it's an absolute housebrick, the 20mm T2 Nagler is still a great eyepiece optically.

Cheers
Ooops .. my bad. It has Type 2 on the barrel.
