Hi (again) I picked up David Groom's book and it mentions a 1902 penny with a dot near Britannia's legs. I can't find any pictures, could this be it? Thanks again, appreciate all the advice.
-
Hi, Picked this 1902 up today with an unusual (angular) 9, I've been looking through the posts and other sources for similar examples and can't find any, guessing it might be a common occurrence, can anyone advise? Thanks again
-
Thanks for that, will look into it
-
Hi, Sure this is common, but don't have it on any of my other pennies (that I can see). Slightly raised lines are they die polishing lines? Any information very welcome as always.

Hi, Thanks for the help so far, I have another question about a 1892 Penny. Part of the top of the T in Victoria seems to be missing. Is it something to do with the dies? Is it quite common to find it? There doesn't seem to be any surrounding damage.

Hi, I'm very new to this so any advice on improving posts for the future would be well received. I was wondering if anyone had seen anything similar to this 1863 penny before, I've seen a few recognised dot varieties but nothing like this. Any help/advice very much appreciated.

I've had a chance to take another look under a microscope today and I think Martin is right, they aren't as prominent as the colon dots now so I think they may be corrosion.

Thank you
-
Hi, not easily removed but they are darker now.
-
Thanks again Martin, I tried that and it is now a slightly darker colon to the other colon dots so you may well be right, still seems to be slightly raised. Appreciate your note.
-
Thanks Dean White
-
Thanks Martin, the one by the D does seem to be raised. Is there a way to tell? Appreciate your thoughts

Hi Richard, Is this photo OK? Appreciate the acknowledgement. What do you need from me? Do you think there are two dots? Before D and between I and A? Dean
