Got this with some gas station change today. What could have caused the raised line running from Abe's lapel to his back? I've found a few error coins before, but nothing like this one... I'm sorry to bug you folks with it, but I'm not confident that I know enough to ask Google the right question. Thanks for any expertise you can offer!

The area at Lincoln's neck looks like damage. PMD.

It's a raised line, not a scratch. Sorry, it's tough to get a picture that shows that.

to the CCF Might be damage from a ball point pen. That would cause it to be raised above the surface.

to CCF.

It looks intentional, maybe a punch of some sort creating a small dimple and causing the surrounding are to rise up.

What does the reverse look like opposite that area?
Can you get us a better close up of this?
