Hi, 

Sure this is common, but don't have it on any of my other pennies (that I can see). Slightly raised lines are they die polishing lines?

Any information very welcome as always. 1936.jpg.da87b0e89ad6e1e5244a978ae4845bbd.jpg

Parallel straight raised lines are indicative of die polishing. Single non-linear lines are more likely to be cracks in the die surface as it starts to break up.
