1936 Canadian Dot Dime-Inspired Men's Leather Watch

The untimely death of King George V in 1936, coupled with the abdication of his successor, King Edward VIII barely one year later, caused havoc for Canadian officials responsible for creating new coins for the new king. As a result, 1936 coins were re-minted for 1937 with the addition of a tiny dot to distinguish them. The 25-cent piece saw wide circulation, but both the penny and the dime never did, and only a few specimens remain. Today, perhaps five of the 10-cent coins survive, and their value is astonishing, in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Now, you can wear a tribute to one of the rarest and most valuable dimes for a relative pittance with the Canadian Dot Dime Men's Watch, a fine jewellery design exclusively from The Bradford Exchange.

This high-quality men's watch features a recreation of the 1936 Canadian dot dime that was minted and marked with a small dot below the maple leaf laurel. The 1936 Canadian dot dime is so rare and highly sought, only 3 are known to exist outside of museums. The case back of the watch is etched with the dime's posthumous, interim effigy of King George V, so this tribute watch is sure to be cherished by coin collectors and history buffs alike, plus it makes a great patriotic gift. Arriving in a FREE collector's case, this handcrafted stainless steel watch features a striking silver-toned finish with a handsome leather band as the perfect finishing touch. Available in a limited edition of 1,936, strong demand is expected, so don't miss out. Order now!
