This one doesn't belong to me (unfortunately) but I'd be interested to read about what you think of it.

AU53. Looks like traces of luster hiding out on the obverse. Very weakly struck towards the center, on both sides (flattened drapery and eagle.) Not FH, hair band is not separated and not defined at forehead.

Would need to look in hand for FH designation, but, for this 1920, it is CLOSE! :)

"1917-1924 Type 2 & 1925-30 Type 2
#8203;
In mid year 1917, a major modification occurred in the entire design, with the head detail totally changed. Now there is a distinctive helmetlike cap with a three-leaved or sprigged, wreath; an outline that runs down the face and curves back below the ear; hair detail that is cordlike; and a small round hole for an ear (Note the difference between the 1925-30 issues was that the round hole was changed to a narrow slit). For the FH designation, 95 to 100 percent of the detail intended must be present. In most cases, this means there must be three complete and distinct leaves present (they must be separated from each other and the other details of the hair, with only the slightest blending); the outlined must be distinct all the way around the face; the hair detail will be distinct, although some slight weakness or blending is allowed; and the ear hole must be present. If any of the above is not present to the degree specified, the Full Head designation will not be assigned."
