This is the most reflective Lincoln Cent I personally have ever had. There is an anomaly on the reverse that I would appreciate any incite on.

This looks like a stuck through error, but it is more prominent on the higher devices, but not all.

Here the green arrows point to more prominent struck throughs then the white arrows point to light parallel scrapes, it seams, that go from the rim to rim.
The light scrapes are incuse also.

To me it looks like coin scratches. Note the wave on the tops of the devices lines. Note the top of the 'S' on states. PSD.

East to West view.

West to East view.
That was my thinking also but here are a couple of images that show no raised flow next to the incuse lines. Wouldn't that mean that whatever caused this happen during the striking process?
Also the incuse lines run parallel with the flow lines on the rest of the coin.

But on a coin scratch, there is a trench and the metal flows up the sides of the cut area. I see that on your image. On a struck through this does not happen. No rise or wave. So you would not see that raised area like your image shows, It confirms just the opposite. It is a coin scratches.

I agree with coop. Upon viewing the first image, I thought they look like scratches. Just PMD.
