The 16 berry reverse (D2 reverse) refers to 1921-P Morgan Dollars with a reverse type that does not include an "extra berry" on the right side of the wreath, which is found on some 21-P reverses that are also known as the 17 berry (D1 reverse) reverse types.
To see the distinction, examine the 17 berry photo first, then the 16 berry photo below it.
