Yes it is a Spike Head
All "SPIKE HEADS" will have a die crack from the rim into any portion of the bust. It shall be limited to die cracks found on the obverse of the coin. The designation SKH will identify this type of die crack.

Is there also one through the L to the forehead, and right of the 6 from the bust to rim?

Kbbpll, you are correct, the one across the L is a scratch because you can see the furrow and the build up of debree from the scratch. The light Die Crack to the right of the 6 from the bust to the rim, I totally missed it. Congrats for the good eye!

Looking at it again the crack at the date might go across the bust from rim to rim.

AllCoinsAreGood-
You can look at the Cuds-on-coins site to see how to submit images of your coin to have it listed.

(JC Stevens is the person who would know, but it's up to you if you want to pursue the listing.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
