Hi everyone saw this one today but I am not sure whether it is a rim die crack or gas bubble.

I think it's too straight to be a die crack.

It maybe just a linear gas bubble if the coin is a Zincoln. If it flows over the devices and not just on the fields it could be a bubble. Year of coin would help?

If it is a copper cent, and the area in question is only on the fields, it might be a die dent. If the area flows over the devices it might be a crack. But I thinking it isn't. Closer images and date of coin would be a big help.
