That looks like linear plating bubbles between the surface copper layer and the zinc below. The coin was probably exposed to heat or something that made it more prominent than normal on zinc-copper cents.

I see roller lines, they are linear and going in the same direction.

I'm going to ask a moderator to move your post to the errors & variety forum for proper attention.

I was thinking metal melt but, bubbles and exposed to heat are the more proper terms.
