Hello fellow coinsters. After getting a couple of coin rolls from the bank. I happened upon this 1983 penny. Looks to me like a die crack on the bottom on both sides of the Lincoln Memorial Building on the reverse. Also I found a lot of bumps on the obverse. Any confirmation and\or ideas on this coin are much appreciated. Thank you and happy coin collecting from Washington State.

Those are die cracks on sides of the memorial. The tiny bumps look like plating blisters.

The die cracks are in common areas. The bumps are plating debris,zinc dust also common.
