davidrj Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 510 Posts	Posted 03/14/2014 10:16 pm An interesting 1875 UK penny raised dot under 1st I of Victoria, note corresponding die crack on the reverse next to the ship - probably caused by a small piece of grit or the like Report this Post to the Staff

davidrj Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 510 Posts	Posted 11/04/2014 10:02 pm Almost certainly caused by a bit of grit - note the die crack and the suggestion of a cannonball next to the ship on the reverse. we are currently discussing "raised dots" here http://www.predecimal.com/forum/top...d-dot-penny/ Can you post a picture of your coin please?

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 12/13/2018 06:44 am I do not have a definitive answer, but I am inclined to think it is die damage. Does his qualify it to be an documented variety? Report this Post to the Staff
