<p>[QUOTE=&quot;aeroman, post: 905228, member: 24955&quot;]<b>1936 Canadian dot penny</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Hi, I&#039;ve had this penny since I&#039;ve been a kid... last year I was levelling stones with pennies from my old piggy bank when I found it. I put it aside and upon seeing a news clip I went looking for it. Lo and behold I had the exact one. I noticed damage around the dot and started remembering back that when I was a child I desparately tried to remove that dot. Under a microscope you can see where I even tried to saw it off. I&#039;ve done an electron microscopy test at a local university where you are able to see that the composition of metals is all the same around the damaged area and as well the scratches I made. Even with the scanning electron microscopy pictures PCGS said authenticity is questionable and they wouldn&#039;t certified it. I&#039;ve learned that it is like this with many of these 1936dot over the years however in one catalog it states that around 660 thousand of these coins were made. My questions are.. anyone have any idea what this might be worth? Why do the vast majority of people only believe 3 or 4 of these coins were made when many have popped up over the years. If anyone wants to discuss this coin further without cluttering this board my email is gwereley @ rogers. com</p><p>Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
