I think that the dot is a fault during the manufacture, perhaps a piece of dirt in the die. You can hardly see it on the badge, the bright light of the scanner shows it up.

Here's the new lacquered one that came this week. This shows that this type came in both stick & pin back types. So far I've only seen the enamelled ones in pin back.

Did yours come from a vet/family contact or a dealer?

Cheers
