doctorman1941, sounds like this 1936 dot penny wasn't all that easy to find. Any idea how many coins you looked at before you found one? lambecolin, like the "moon satellites" reference, thanks for the picture. Have noticed that many dots on coins are not always perfect.  |

Dots are more subjected to PMD as they are sitting out exposed in the fields--the more perfect ones are protected by the rim . Check out some MS dot examples for better dot shapes |

Can appreciate your logic lambecolin.
I have examined unc coins and found similar occurrences, which leads me to understand that not all differences found on coins can be explained away as being post mint damage.

Bellmaker I looked at a lot of 1936 cents and they are hard to find but they are still out there so go on the hunt and eventually you will find one.

doctorman1941, I turned the e-mail on and attempted to send you one indicating that this had been activated.
Immediately received a message saying the e-mail did not go, as new members cannot send e-mails.
So I shut it off, as I do not believe in one-way communication.

doctorman1941, you indicate that these 1936 dot on King one cent coins are out there for the finding.
And I do view the dot on the 25 cent as being nothing more than a representation that a King different from the portrait and titles is now sitting on the Throne.
I can see this find of yours as being an genuine dot variety, coined by the Mint.
Does explain the mystery of where all the dot one cent coins went.

"Obverse dot is not a dot---it is die pit which gets bigger as the die ages"[lambecolin]
Have to respectfully disagree.

This thread now will return to discussion of the coins themselves... or else it will be locked.
