@joipo, have you tried to depress these raised areas with the tip of a wooden toothpick? If they are linear plating bubbles, then this might flatten them somewhat. There are a few other things that these might be, but that is always my starting point.

Looks more like die dents/gouges.

Odd that plating bubbles would only be on the field, how about Feeder Finger Damage on the die?

yes appears to be possible die dents, If it were plating bubbles I would think it would not stop and then start up when it crosses the 'A'. Instead it is only affecting the fields above the lettered devices.

@ of these 'lines' are exactly at the same angle - I find it hard to believe that random "linear Plating Bubbles" will show up at the exact same angle as another one.
I think something dented or gouged the die.
