EOC got it first - they're Feeder Finger scrapes
on the Die - so there are many thousands of them
out there.
Value? None, imo, but they might bring a few bucks
on Ebay.

Yes, I found a few myself. In different denominations too. Why does it seem these are coming out quite frequent now when you hardly see any in much older coins?

I have heard the term, but know not the meaning.

GW is recessed on the die, the high points of the die get scraped.
It does not appear to be raised, as a feeder finger scrape would be.
If it is incuse, it may have been struck through something which was dragged across the surface of the die.
Keeping in mind that the minting mechanism process is going very fast. It's a good keeper for your error binder. Peace Roy

Nice find and a good example for your 'education' file. Good pictures as well. Cheers, RickO
Looks like Washington and the boys are taking on water.
Nice find and really nice pictures.
