    My guess would be grease on the dies. I have seen many wheats like this. At first I was thinking mechanical damage, but typically if that were the case the mintmark would be affected as well.

    I have never heard of a desired mint error looking like that, I have only seen PMD like that.

    I hope that helped a little until someone more knowledgable answers you.
