My Public Key on MultiBit Classic is 34 digits long

My public key, as it's displayed in MultiBit Classic, has remained unchanged in the last eight years since I bought my bitcoin in Jan 2014.  I'm now looking to move my bitcoins from MultiBit Classic to Coinbase.  But since MultiBit is deprecated, I need to extract the public key and private key from MultiBit, and send it manually from Exodus.  I have been able to extract the private keys, and confirm they are the correct length: 52 digits for a compressed public key.  My public key is 34 digits, but everywhere I read says a compressed public key should be 33 digits.  What am I missing? or not understanding correctly.


How can I confirm the correct compressed public key?


This question:
MultiBit with multiple addresses to Electrum
explains how to export a private key from MultiBit Classic.  I already have my private keys, but my public keys are 1 digit too long.
