@E&V, interesting coin. I agree that the metal around the linear mark does not appear to be "smushed" up as would be expected on a scratch. It also looks like the copper plating is intact in that area, which also points to it being struck through. However, it looks to me a little like it peters out a bit as you get close to the rim by the T in CENT. I would expect a strike-through to be equally defined over its whole length. I'll be interested to read what others think!

Maybe a hair/eyelash? It does appear to be struck through something, though.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Maybe a struck through rim burr, any zinc showing on the edge?

Thank you Coinfrog. I'll now check to see if it was Struck Through a Rim Burr.
