The bidding has ended. Someone just paid $50.00 for a $1.00 coin.
If that was genuine, it would have been worth over $300,000.

All 1936 1c dot coins are specimen strikes - why do people always assume they'll find a business strike example out in the wild?

Easy to see why you would think it's a 1936 dot on account of it has a dot. Sadly, it's the wrong dot....keep looking!

@SPP....keep looking for interesting and potentially valuable stuff... 90% of the fun is looking for the needle in the haystack.

I could not agree more, however, it would be futile to hunt for a 1936 dot cent.

I believe one famous collector at one point owned all the examples until just a few years ago former mint masters donated a set to the BOC museum, kind of tells you all need to know about this coin type
