I see it okay... are you sure it's part of the original minting or might it be some corrosion residue? If it was inherent to the penny right from the mint that would be a nice little score - I haven't seen that variety yet.

I tried to scrape the dot off and then brushed with soap using a toothbrush . The dot does not seem to be from rust or corrosion .

CP save your money , ICCS will not slab it or comment on it unless it is in the Charlton book... Maybe CCCS might but I dont think the cost justifies the value

That's an interesting thought...

It could now have been an electric arc or flash and could have transferred a bit of solder ..or the like...Just another option to consider...
