Forgive my ignorance on the subject, but I thought all of the "dot" coins were minted in late 1936 to represent the new king? I thought they were only run on 1936 coins and only in a few denominations. Are all of these references to "dot" coins just die chips of varying degrees, or did the RCM actually produce more "dot" coins past 1937?

thank you. So pretty much everything out there with the exception of the 1936 series are in fact die chips? Folks just adopted the term "dot" to attract attention to it since the real dot is a true rarity? Interesting. Thanks again for the info and the link.

amnight, could you please provide a picture of the obverse.

tights24, there are dots on Canadian coins past 1936 that are not considered to be the result of die chips.

The 1943 5 cent would be a good example.

This is amnights' thread and I do not wish to see it fall away into the 'censorship abyss', so I will refrain from sharing any further examples.
