Last one for the night. Is this a common occurrence or is this unique? This penny was uncirculated by the looks of it, two marks happened to catch my eye on Lincoln's face. These seem like cracks or gouge marks.

Not bubble this time, it's a void or space, these are two separate marks

Looks like two contact marks on the cheek where another coin hit this one.

Agree. Contact marks/dings acquired as the coin made its way after striking at the mint to wherever it was eventually captured and photographed. If only coins could talk, the stories they'd tell.
