check here by inputting the digits you already have. If it's in the database, it will find it.

Thank you! It wasn't there. Perhaps I am not thinking outside the box. I'd like to share:

A = 2, B = 0, C = 2, D = 0, E = 3, F = 3, G = 2 and H = 4. Given this pattern, what's the only letter in the alphabet that has a value of "1".

Hint: Look at the letters that have the same values. Try to find a common physical characteristic.

P But Q also qualifies depending upon how it is printed. Sometimes Q has an inward extending limb in which case it would be a 2. I believe we are only considering the capital letters. Lower case h is only a 3.

Thank you Petek! I'll track you down next time I need a hint :) Have a great day!

Thank you Ramsey. I had just figured it out with the previous hint :)
