Found a 1901 Indian Head penny that appears to have die cracks along the Indian head on the obverse. Also the reverse has strange markings as well. What do you think?

, those are some deep scratches on the obverse and reverse and it happened after it came out of the mint , it's called PMD or post mint damage

Grafitti, rather than die crack, I think. A letter "A" on the obverse, and some boxes on the reverse. IHCs are great coins! Welcome!

The one that looks most like a die crack is probably just displaced metal from the cut.
