 to the CCF. I agree, these look like a very poor attempt at polishing a Die.

Agreed. Die polishing on reverse. Nice looking coin.

Looks like they were polishing out a die clash. Nice looking cent for a 1991.

I made these "photos" on my old Epson scanner. I believe I scanned at 9600 dpi. Of course I had to reduce them to comply with the size requirements here.

Being the coin was scanned, that makes it even more impressive. Photos are best though. John1

I agree that these are die scratches representing intentional die abrasion. While most die scratches travel in multiple directions, this case is somewhat unusual in that the scratches mainly travel northwest to southeast. Although they pursue a similar direction, they are much thinner than die scrapes from a feeder/ejector
