I have thought that this bird was a hen since it was 8 weeks old, but since the last molt, am starting to have doubts. It doesn't have a crazy hairdo like my obvious male of the same age/coloration, but it doesn't have the refined do of my female polish... Can you help?

Ignore the obvious male in front... Just provided for comparison...
 
I agree with you that the crest is cockerel-ish. However, since the feathers are not those of a cockerel, I'm going with pullet for now. I could very well be wrong, though; you should know in a few weeks.
 
It's a pullet. My boy and girl look just like yours! You can see your male in the front and your female in the back! Great comparison pics for others who are wondering what theirs are! :)
