Well this is nice. I keep finding the unusual stuff. Not complaining about it, cause I get to get credit for listing this one on Cuds on coins. Didn't see this one on there. But here you go. The white hand points at the die crack. The blue arrow pointing at the possible die gouge that may have caused the die crack, I'm not sure how.

I've seen that before on a coin, but it had three die cracks like yours:

I think that because the bust image is so large, the dies have a lot of stress on them forming that profile on cents
Rest in Peace

Need a lot closer and clear pix. Too straight for a die crack. Can't tell if it is a linear plating bubble or something else like a die gouge (scratch).

Die cracks can be straight, look at the ones on Coop's coin.
