The one off the leaf may be a crack. As for the other 2 lines, for some reason 2010 was a year where you saw tons of those lines on the pennies. Not cracks, but I'm not sure what causes them. I always thought they were just random lines until I saw 2 pennies with the same hooked line in the same place. Maybe someone out there can provide us with an answer.
I've tended to think the same thing, but wasn't sure. Any idea what would cause these gouges to be so prevalent on the 2010's but not on other dates? There are a lot of 2010's marked like this, but I don't remember seeing them on other years.
