Are the lines raised? Could be die polishing lines...

Roller Lines maybe?
Errers and Varietys.

The two possibilities mentioned are the only things I can think of at this point. I am leaning toward die abrasion (polishing).  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Obverse is normal. No lines.
How can the die be polished inside the design elements, I have seen tool marks but never that parallel and usually contained to the fields. Would roller marks be on both obverse and reverse?

I agree roller lines. These are not on the die, but are on the planchets. For some reason they don't go away after a strike.  Note how they are on the area that isn't even struck yet. |

When others find coins and have questions, then I spot how it can be an educational image and prepare it for use on the forums. They are there to teach. And believe it or not, I may edit images again later for a different purpose or to save typing ove and over the same information. Then I just post the image with the explanation. Type smarter, not harder. (My Motto)

Rolling marks. You can also find them on almost every 1968 nickel dollar...
