Wow, I'd say a fantastic struck through of some sort.
Nice photo, but you should post full obverse and reverse photos as well.

I want to say strike-through. Appears to be too 'clean' for a reeding hit.

I'm probably wrong but I suspect PMD. The damage on the reverse lines up, suggesting this could be a vise/squeeze. I hope I'm wrong & it is a legit struck through.

Could be a Struck Through error. Mike Diamond should take a look at this one. It could just be PMD though.
Errers and Varietys.

Again, nice photos. Coin_rejector makes a good point that this could be squeeze job.
The area under the date and lower left shield are interesting.

I'm in the damage ball park. When you say it is too large to be reeding, what coins did you use to compare it with? in your posted image, it does look large, but in actually it is small in relation to the cent itself. I'm thinking that maybe an Eisenhower dollar's reeding was pressed into this coin.

"Man made error"  - Take a half dollar and tap it with a hammer as you roll it across the surface of the cent. The lines on the reverse coincide with how many times the half dollar was hit by the hammer!

Ok, consensus is PMD. Done.

The marks seem unusually deep for not rupturing the plating. It's certainly visually interesting. I'm in the  camp on this one. =)
