I'll guess AU55 and EF40.
Here's the only one of my SLQ's I have a picture of
I guess Xpipe's is an MS64.
Barry, that is one fine coin. Absolutely beautiful, and a total rarity to boot. Nice.
Yeah, that 1918 is really great looking...nice detail and everything. And the toning on the 1919 is very neat! I was probably a little harsh with EF40
And Barry...is that 1918/7 yours? Yowza!

Xpipe - yes, it's mine. I bought it a few months ago. I'm not actively collecting SLQs now, but couldn't resist that one when I saw it. It's been posted in a few other threads, but not everybody reads every thread, so figured I'd use it for this one too.
That would be one of my favorites too. Here's another of mine, it's raw, but has some nice album tone.

For the quarter to be a full head, it has to have the 3 sprigs in the hair (type II), the hairline around the face, and the earhole. It it doesn't have all 3, it is just a good head.

Although I couldn't see the exact detail of the head of your 29-S...what what I could see from the posted photo, its a FH, not a marginal FH, but a dyed in the wool FH.
Nice pick up. Jon of RCNH has a wonderful set himself, and glad he's sharing his dup's with us.
Get that 29-S holdered, you'll be very pleasantly surprised.

Okay, okay I'll be honest. Here is one thats a bit nicer:

Here is my contribution:
MICHAELDIXON, cool coin. You don't see that color on Standing Libs very often.
coinpage, I must question as well. Even if PCGS calls that a full head, it's lacking the earhole, so I wouldn't call that a full head coin. Nice color though.
FullHorn, my very first SLQ looks like that, it was a VF/XF 17P I got on ebay about 4 years ago. I love the original grey surfaces. SLQs have been about all I collect starting and since then.
Crackout, I'd be thanking FullHorn too, that coin is a beauty.
Merc, a nice example of a white coin with a nice full head.
Jason, I like original so I of course like your coin.
Harbon, in my book, any SLQ is a nice SLQ.
Theop, a nice coin for a 26-D. Very decent head for that year and mintmark. Most are totally flat or scooped out.
Typetone, what can be said. Beautiful color.
Okay, here's another from me. Minimal full head, but very nice original color, golds and russets. Would probably go higher than 63 if dipped, but who would do such a thing?
Sorry, I don't own it anymore...but "I'll never forget her".
