    I grade it a lovely coin worthy of the green sticker. I love the original look. Well done.

    Looks 55, and I think it probably got the FH designation

    At a recent small show I saw a coin graded as CACG XF45 FH.

    Thanks for your votes and feedback.

    Well..................PCGS graded it 55 non-FH.

    In hand and rotating the coin, the case for FH is even stronger. I also did direct comparisons to other AU FH CACs in my collection. In my opinion it is a 55FH CAC.

    I think PCGS was being overly conservative or just made a mistake. When I have a few other coins to cross to CACG, I will submit this one. I'll post the results.

    I said 58 without the full head designation before looking at the resulting answer. I like the toning and the strike, especially, for that particular issue.

    I like 55 as the grade. That seems like the right call.

    As far as FH's go, especially for AU55/58 coins, I have seen some inconsistency on these over the years (quite a bit actually, but it has been over many years) ... and with 20-P's being a very well struck date overall, seeing this not get a FH was not entirely surprising.

    .
    Also, for purists there are technically there are three types of SLQ's, unlike the PCGS data posted by @tradedollarnut , and IMO all three have different striking characteristics even if type 2 (1917 to 1924) and type 3 (1925 to 1930) have the same head design.

    Looking back on a different screen, I was a little generous. I now agree with it being a nice, original AU55.
