1863 farthing questions

I've noticed that the 1863 farthings on Colin Cookes site are listed under "without raised dot (normal)". What is the significance of the raised dot? Is the raised dot type worth more than the normal variety? Where is the raised dot? My coin is below, and has a small raised dot to the left of the shield on the reverse, is this what they're talking about?....and lastly, what price could I hope to get for the coin? Any help would be appreciated.

As for the "dot," that is new to me. There are varieities in the formation of the date, but nothing else documented in Spink, Coincraft, Marles or British Coins Market Values. Colin must have come up with a new variety. Best to ask him.
