Disregard.

Just found this in a mint set. Hard to capture in pics, but looks crazy in-hand.

I assume these are scratches, but wanted to check here to see if there’s any evidence that it’s something else?

Giant lines on right side of coin and cross-crossing on bottom left of obverse.

    Yes, they're scratches.

    See how they go across the rims in
    at least three points?

    Agree with the consensus that they are scratches. It's strange they would be found in a mint set.

    It is strange for a mint set. How was the packaging? Other coins? Was it original government packaging?

    Haven't you learned yet on this forum that you will get more attention if you tell people not to look? :p

    2.) Packaging was normal. The mint sets I've seen so far haven't been the best as far as quality.
