Hi guys... it seems like there is a small dot between the last two letters of the date "1966" of this half crown coin.. is this a die error?.. I assumed so.. I haven't seen many British coins with die damages (besides modern 2 and 20 penny coins..) any idea what's wrong with this coin?.. thanks..

FULL RESOLUTION

Coincraft's Standard catalog of English and UK coins doesn't mention it at all

Thanks guys for letting me know, I've also checked some books covering minor errors on British coins, none of them seem to mention an error or any "common" errors in Cu-Ni halfcrowns. Perhaps no study was done about them, who knows.. I have handled around 100 cu-ni halfcrowns, haven't seen a similar error before but would love to get a second opinion about it. Thanks.
