    They are on the obverse and reverse. One larger area under Liberty and smaller area down neck
    and one at the bird's breast. What is the cause?

    Occasionally, a thin layer of grease & debris will build up in one of the devices and fall onto the planchet before it is struck. This happens a lot.
