I feel lucky today finding that my AU58 16-P is a 2-feather variety

Bought this coin in 2002 from Great Lake Coins for $20 and had NGC slab it a few years later. Never noticed at the time it was a 2-feather. Not sure when NGC started this designation or you need to request it.

    Cool story. Even though the 16 is the most common 2 feather, the fact that’s it’s in a high grade and you paid so little for it makes it a win. You do need to request and pay extra to NGC for the designation.

    Thanks for the info Vetter. Be curious to know the value at this grade to see if its worth the re-grading price

    They may do reholdering, in which case just pay for variety attribution
