Does anyone know what caused the lines and loss of nose on this penny?

@trina, first welcome to CCF. Second, those could be roller lines.

Roller marks left by the machine that rolls the metal stock to the right thickness. They're pretty common on cents of that vintage.

Yes, classic roller lines. We see these posted a few times each month--not uncommon.
