I am new to collecting and found this 1945 Wheat penny. I was wondering if it is a cracked die stamped penny? Any value? Any info would be great, Thanks!

normally a cracked die results in a straight line, looks a little like a lamination error.

That looks like a GOO line, crud from when two coins were stuck together. Bet it comes off in an acetone bath...

It looks a lot like something stuck to the coin to me as well.

Kind of looks like a hair stuck to the coin. Note where it goes over devices, it is missing?

Not sure what it is, but it deffently a stamp mark in the coin. It is a raised mark in the coin, not just sitting on the surface. It can't be picked off, rubbed off or cleaned off.
