Strike error?

Hi,
Parents sent me this 1853 lg cent for my IH cent collection, oh well. My question does it have a strike error, foreign object or are the markings just damage after the minting process?
In the date you can see an arching line, especially in the 8 and 3. On the reverse you can see the arching round line through United States Of America.
Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

Edited to add: I see you got the pics up. I would venture to say that it is Post mint damage.
still learning how to get photos as large as possible. How do people put pictures in their post?

there is no error on the coin.
The flattened/mishapen letters, etc.
are from something being pressed
into/against your coin......
PMD, imo.
