I don't see a dot anywhere on your coin. Look at the 1947's on this section of the site. As mentioned above, "dots" are caused by die chips on the die or by small rust pits on the steel. Remember than '47 was just after the war where much of the desirable metals were still in short supply and steel for the dies were making a come-back. Only the "dots" that are put there purposely on the die my the mint raise any value (like the 36 dot)
