Is there a soil symbol used in the AASHTO classification system for organic soils or topsoil?
 
I guess the correct terminology would be what GROUP would organic soils be classified under per AASHTO. USCS uses symbols, AASHTO uses groups. Would you use process of elimination, moving from left to right on the AASHTO chart, as you do with all other soil types?
