Did you request the variety attribution? I believe with PCGS you must request it, they will not note it otherwise. Or maybe they only note it on non-details slabs?

lawest Pillar of the Community United States 1998 Posts	Posted 08/19/2025 09:50 am I didn't request the attribution because it is not listed as one PCGS recognizes. Turns out I saved a little money given the grade Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6535 Posts	Posted 08/19/2025 09:53 am PCGS mainly attributes Cherrypicker Guide varieties for Mercury dimes. They also limit to a specific edition (4th? 5th?). Although the coin has three varieties, I don't think any of the three are CPG listed. PCGS doesn't generally give a generic Minor (Variety Type) on the label unless it is a really strong non-CPG example. Hopefully someone very familiar with PCGS attributions can explain in more detail. Maybe HumblePie or somebody else that makes PCGS variety submissions? Report this Post to the Staff

Was typing and looking at listings when you posted that. So you weren't expressing surprise that it didn't get the variety attribution, you were stating a fact.
