I feel like a complete simpleton here... but where's the dot on this coin.. I didn't even know that the '47 had a "dot" variety... Any and all info would be helpful... I want to learn more! * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

The Charlton catalogue states "The dot after 7 variety is the result of a specimen die being put in service as a working die for business strikes. The dot is a result of an accidental pit on the die." Report this Post to the Staff
DEVLEC Pillar of the Community Canada 3234 Posts	Posted 10/10/2013 09:18 am Here is my 47 Dot ,..showing where the small dot is located.. One of the first coins that I ever bought. All of the dollars were stacked together in a pill jar and sold as one set,...but missing the 48 ,...as they were told by their corner bank that there weren't any of that year.

DEVLEC Pillar of the Community Canada 3234 Posts	Posted 10/10/2013 09:24 am If the dot dollar was from a "specimen" die, would that mean that many of the 'dot dollars' have a somewhat better finish than the other 47 BL and 47 ML's..? Report this Post to the Staff
