I suspect this die polishing phenomena in one that folks have not really looked for in Canadian coins much...

This is a business strike 1965 5-cent. The die trails are coming off the obverse legend devices. 1965 is the first year for this effigy of the Queen. It certainly lends a bit of support that proof-like dies were polished (and replated?) for business strike production.

To a lesser degree, there are even faint ones coming off the denticles of the 1964 5-cent reverse, also a business strike.
