Any chance this 1894 O Barber would garner a PO1 grade? It appears quite similar to the PO1 on PCGS Photograde page.
Just curious.

    Thanks, you make your point. The stars should have jumped out at me, but did not.

    Not enough wear for P01. Sorry. You could put her in ye old rock tumbler and get some more slick but unfortunately by doing so would be saying goodbye to its originality. If it's any consolation, looks like it would CAC.

    “I believe in intuitions and inspirations. I sometimes feel that I am right. I do not know that I am. When two expeditions of scientists, financed by the Royal Academy, went forth to test my theory of relativity, I was convinced that their conclusions would tally with my hypothesis. I was not surprised when the eclipse of May 29, 1919, confirmed my intuitions. I would have been surprised if I had been wrong.”

    “Then you trust more to your imagination than to your knowledge?”

    “I am enough of the artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”

    Not enough wear in the stars. F2. Maybe carry it in your pocket for a couple years?
