Hi all, I don't believe this to be an actual lamination due to the manufacturing process of modern cents, so what is going on with this '94 cent?

One looks like a die crack while the other looks like a crack in the plating-definitely not sure on this one though?

I can see it as two cracks, just have never seen two cracks come together as these do. It almost looks like a rim burr, but I am not sure if it is possible on a plated coin. I suppose it maybe possible that the zinc blank had a rim burr, went through the copper plating bath and then got struck into the coin?

If might be a piece of foil from plating from another coin? I don't see gray between the edges of the marks in question.

Possibly a struck in rim burr.

Yeah. Scratching my head harder the harder I look at it.
