purelywasted Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 12/29/2014 2:04 pm Thanks SPP, I forgot I have previously posted on his threads. Nothing more frustrating than trying to engage with someone who won't pitch in to help solve the problem. Report this Post to the Staff

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10458 Posts	Posted 12/29/2014 3:41 pm What makes you think it is a "dot" and not a die chip? Prove your thesis.

Everest Pillar of the Community Taiwan 606 Posts	Posted 12/29/2014 3:51 pm Pacificoin: Just some superb posts.Thank you for sharing your knowledge on the subject.I agree with your theory for a number of reasons.One being that all the coins can be attributed to former mint employees or their heirs. I recall a Specimen 1936 Dot ten cent piece that surfaced in 2000 and it was sold by a former mint employee. Everest Report this Post to the Staff

Quote: Did the Royal Canadian Mint produce the 1936 10 cent coin with a dot that is shown at the beginning of this thread? Seeing as the word "produce" is used in the above phrase,..my vote would be no ...when looking at the posted pics in this thread.. I suspect that you also mean "intentionally produced" ..by the RCM... . . Edited by DEVLEC 12/29/2014 4:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5394 Posts	Posted 12/29/2014 4:42 pm Many thanks for the support Everest. Fascinating subject with very little REAL discourse and research from the OP, sad really! Report this Post to the Staff

bellmaker Valued Member Canada 180 Posts	Posted 12/30/2014 07:18 am 'What makes you think it is a "dot"'[SPP-Ottawa] My own eyes tell me it is a dot. Everyone I have ever shown an example to, related to the hobby and not related to the hobby have stated it is a dot. The dot on the coin reflects the dictionary definition of the word; DOT.

Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5394 Posts	Posted 12/30/2014 10:39 am Dot , die pit, whatever you wish to call it Bellmaker what is your point? The coin is a minor die pit that happens to be on a 1936 regular issue ten cents and absolutely nothing more than that. Another diagnostic of this particular minor variety( that is all it is )is there is also a die break at the upper leaves of all the better condition ones I have examined. This die break is a diagnostic and gets progressively heavier as the die further breaks down. Also with your so called dot here, it is not perfectly round and machined in appearance as the real Specimen purpose made dot coins that were back doored in the late 1930's. Rather it is more blob like in appearance. Next thing you will be telling us all is that the 1951 Short Water Lines Silver dollar with the dot in field in front of the Canoe (old Zoell variety as well, now Charlton rev#6, also once known as the North Star Variety),shows that time was getting short for the Kings life (thus the short lines) and that GOD was calling him home soon (the dot in the field being a star in the heavens). Dean ,quit playing word games and arguing semantics with SPP and do some REAL numismatic research on this subject as others have . Report this Post to the Staff
