<p>[QUOTE="Publius2, post: 8608962, member: 105571"]I've been looking for some time for a nice 1919 or 1920 SLQ in MS-65 or 66 to replace the 1917-D ANACS EF-45 in my type set. I already had Variety 1 as a 1917 PCGS MS-64FH and the Variety 3 as a 1930 PCGS MS-65FH. My preference for these coins is a blast white appearance since I've never liked the way SLQs tone.

[QUOTE="Publius2, post: 8608962, member: 105571"]I've been looking for some time for a nice 1919 or 1920 SLQ in MS-65 or 66 to replace the 1917-D ANACS EF-45 in my type set. I already had Variety 1 as a 1917 PCGS MS-64FH and the Variety 3 as a 1930 PCGS MS-65FH. My preference for these coins is a blast white appearance since I've never liked the way SLQs tone. So, I've been looking for the Variety 2 with that look. A full-head was not a requirement but I wasn't averse to it. I found a coin in a GC auction that I liked and won it last night by one bid increment. Bidding was pretty stiff. This 1924 is a NGC MS-66 CAC. While it's not a FH, I think it's still a nice coin and satisfies all my criteria for appearance. Not the strongest strike; shield lines are mushy as are toes and eagle's breast feathers. The 1924 (seller's photos) and the 1917 and 1930 are shown below. Now the 17-D that was in the Type Set transfers to the Circulated SLQ set where there are only the 1916, 1919-S and 1920-D left to go.
