We discuss why projection valued measures are not sufficient in the description of position and momentum of a one dimensional particle. A satisfactory solution is offered using positive operator measures. We also argue why the relevant positive operator measures, but not all, may be called unsharp observables.

Abstract
We discuss why projection valued measures are not sufficient in the description of position and momentum of a one dimensional particle. A satisfactory solution is offered using positive operator measures. We also argue why the relevant positive operator measures, but not all, may be called unsharp observables.
