    You do it by following the original designation criteria. Where you get into trouble is when you follow the less strict designation criteria used by the TPG.

    Read Paul's thread, there are several things pointed out in that thread that are very important. And there is a link in that thread which will give you more info - http://books.google.com/books?id=OL...v=onepage&q=STANDING LIBERTY QUARTERS&f=false

    While the photos could be better, the coin appears to have an okay strike, but not exceptional, and does not deserve the FH designation. Without excellent photos (and even then), I would be very careful if trying to pick with the intent of getting into an FH holder, even with the sometimes rather lenient standards today, of which the coin in post #8 is a fine example.

    Though I don't think it should get FH status (it's close) It is a very well struck coin in the shield and other parts for a Type II coin . Very nice coin .

    I think it does too , do you have a pic of the whole coin as the shield looks strongly struck , at least the part I can see , and looks like a coin I wouldn't mind owning . One thing , though the head should recieve the FH designation , if it were any weaker it might not . Still a pretty nice coin .

    I think that this coin clearly meets the criteria for full head. Three sprigs, a clear hairline, and a visible earhole. There is some flatness in the hair but that is permitted.

    I ended up getting this coin on a rebound sale, should be on its way today or tomorrow. I think it will end up being a quality coin, it may not go FH, but a very pleasing example for my TII for my type-set.
