US Cents which are plated with zinc are susceptible to &#039;blistering.&#039;&nbsp; Sometimes they look like bubbles and sometimes like lines. You may have two different things going on on this coin. It may be that the&nbsp; horizontal line is a scratch AND the other line coming down from the tail of the 9 may be a &#039;linear blister&#039; caused by zinc plating.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
