That would be FFD ( Feeder Finger Damage) Notice how it is on the lowest part of Lincoln's profile. (which is the highest part on the die) You can also see in on the field right in front of the face too.

These are only die scratches, just like the dime you are asking about.

Feeder fingers scratch the "surface" of the dies - they don't dig into the devices that are lower (incuse) than the surface. I was going to say that is a result of die polishing as you can see the back of Lincoln's neck is gone too.

I'm in the camp with die scratches.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
