Do you think PCGS would slab this 1793 Wreath Cent?

I've been trying to make or find a PO01 1793 Wreath Cent for 4 years......and its tough! I've never seen one but I do have a FR02 and have seen several other FR02's. Think PCGS would grade this coin? The reverse is without detail and the obverse just shows the outline of the portrait and part of the sprig. Classic PO01 detail. What do you think about it's chances of getting holdered? Seems to me that PCGS is comparatively liberal about grading early copper.........

    Yes, unless the color is wrong for the coin PCGS should holder that at the well deserved grade of P01!

    I think it's worth a shot @ PCGS.

    I would say that it clearly is PO-01 and PCGS will slab it as that. Very few problems, none of which would preclude it from slabbing.

    I say go for it.

    Yep, I do not think they would worry about an overgrading credibility issue on this one and would over look the nick.

    If that thing isn't a P-01, I don't know what is. I think it will slab.
