I agree with everything said in this post.
Not a chance. That is 100% plated.

Did I miss the backstory on this? I see a problem Barber (albeit a key date), in a problem holder.
No. There hasn't. There have been coins that I've wanted to own for various reasons - they are historical, they are rare, they are interesting...
