Im flying F.. I bought a coach ticket on my Company Amex.,. Then called Customer Service to pay the difference with my personal card. I know that there are several types of identifiers for each type of Fare. I was wondering what my code would be since I basically upgraded my coach fare.

If you have a receipt from DL, there's also a column that shows segment by segment single capital letter fare classes. Note that there can be a different fare class for different segments, even in the same direction. [If this happens, it means that you have a broken fare, although there can theoretically be broken fares for which the fare class does not change.]
You can see the fare class when you search on delta.dumb, especially if you do advanced search by fare class, which allows you to control it somewhat.

I have found that sometimes even on the receipt that column shows the class you're booked in but not necessarily the fare class you paid. I have two future bookings, one is showing WU (and the corresponding receipt email says W) but this is for an award ticket where they cancelled one of my segments and put me on the next later flight where I preferred an earlier flight; the second example I bought (I) and again after a schedule change got rebooked and the receipt now says (J). So in the case of reissue, it may be necessary to refer to your original receipt email, or to ask an agent.

There can also be some confusion with G A P fares with an underlying coach fare class that book into FC.

You seem to have P class in both directions. Mystery solved. Enjoy FC.

And the seventh character of the fare basis code indicates it is a "fare product" for C+.
