This penny has streaks that run across parts of the reverse side. Even one above Lincolns little statue in the memorial. Though I think its been manipulated because of the shine it has but I could be wrong. I'm still learning. What do you all think? They do look cool.

Looks like the die has been polished to me. Maybe some plating bubbles also.

I agree with seal - looks like Feeder Finger Damage.
Rest in Peace

Feeder fingers supply the planchets to the dies, occasionally one will scrape across the die face leaving a series of parallel gouges.

The fields are usually the only areas affected as they are the outside part of the die.
