<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bill in Burl, post: 1457121, member: 23692&quot;]The 1936 dot cent came out of the mint under questionable means and questionable legality.&nbsp; The few pieces known are extremely rare and command very large prices.&nbsp; However, they have been faked and copied almost since the year that they came out, so an expert really needs to look at the coin and your scan does not allow even a faint indication of what it may be.&nbsp; Since yours has been circulated some and not well-kept (green crud), I&#039;d say that it is almost definitely a fake/copy.&nbsp; All known strikes were specimen coins, not circulation strikes. Try to get someone with a good camera that allows a macro lens and ability to have it blown up, then post it on this or the Canadiancoppercoin site.&nbsp; As a last resort, I would send it to ICCS or CCCS to have them look at it, but it may cost you $20-30 just to have it body-bagged.&nbsp; In Canada, it is illegal to even possess a counterfeit coin, so you might lose ownership of it as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
