   Thanks All... I went back to my album and started looking at the other coins for the 2 feathers variety... I think my 1918-S is also a 2 feather... I'll pull it from the album and get better pics once I'm able.

   It sure is. Some of the dates in 2 feathers are very hard to find.

   Yes there is a premium, especially if pcgs attributed. 3-$50 4-$75 6-$85 8-$100. It is one found less often. When I sold my 2 feather low grade set a year or two ago, I got about $100 each (or more) on average. Most are worth more than the price guide says. 25S seems the most common and commonly available.

   1913 d t1 1913 s t1 1923 are pretty tough, I have never even seen either 1913 D or S 2f for sale or in hand.

   Thanks... I thought so but I don't have much experience with these. Inadvertent cherry pick. It's a lower grade piece but is there a typical premium for this variety?

   Thanks! I've got a new-found appreciation for this series. I found them to be much more difficult to grade than some of the other series I collect; especially so in AU to low MS grades! I think this one might straight-grade AG3, the date is weak... at that grade, I'll likely just keep it raw for the time being...
