1821 sixpence with a dot in the date

[Peckris]

(I should have known placing this in someone else's thread would guarantee it got ignored!)

Have a look at the reverse of this 1821 sixpence - there is a definite raised dot after the 2 in the date. It's not mentioned in Davies. It's the same sixpence I showed the obverse of a few days back. Any thoughts?

It possibly looks like an inclusion in the flan, say a trapped air bubble, though could equally be a lump missing on the die. It just looks a bit smoothed for a random flake of metal
