1947 Twenty Five Cents - Dot - ICCS MS-64. Blast white, superb strike. After India was granted its independence in 1947, the ET IND: IMP: (and Emperor of India) became outdated. New dies had to be made, a very time-consuming process and in the meantime the Royal Canadian Mint had to make do with old dies. To distinguish those issues, a tiny maple leaf was placed to the right of the date. On an unknown number of examples, the maple leaf became filled and had the appearance of a tiny dot. Gems are rarely offered.
