<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kaparthy, post: 1823210, member: 57463&quot;]Well, I had to stop and think about what FH, FBL, and FS mean... Myself, when I grade a Type I Standing Liberty Quarter, I do not look at the head.&nbsp; That said, I can only rubber stamp the advice given so far: these are indication of the earliest strike of &quot;fresh&quot; dies, so, yes, a purist could consider such designations important when buying.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, more important is the actually LOOK of the coin hands-on, eyes-on. Not all Full Heads (or whatever) are created equal.&nbsp; <b>When I buy wooden nickels, I only buy FR: Full Ring.</b>&nbsp; (No, just kidding! Arrr-arr... ) </p><p><br /></p><p>Sure, we want to make money, but it is a <b>HOBBY </b>like bowling or model cars or&nbsp; knitting or scrapboarding.&nbsp; If you are not having fun, you are missing the point.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
