    first coin looks to be from die detorastion
    second coin is PMD from the rim of another coin pressing against it
    third coin looks to have a circular scratch from a coin rolling machine

    next time you get some rolls of coins look at the exposed ones on the ends of the rolls and you can see this on some of the end of the roll coins. the rolling machine pushed some of the copper plating over a little and formed a raised edge to cause it to look crimped. this destroys some of the value of a coin if it was to be a valuable collector coin.
