Nice pen - considered one of the most successful pens made. These were made by Sheaffer starting in 1924 and are still available today, yours is from the 1950's. The original meaning of the dot was to indicate that the pen had a lifetime guarantee ("unconditionally guaranteed for a lifetime").
These typically will sell for between $20-$35 dollars in excellent condition, but can go up to around $75.00-$100.00 if in absolutely perfect mint working condition. You can often find them for around $20.00 or less at pen shows. Enjoy your pen and hopefully you are using it!
