Found this while coin roll hunting, noticed what looked like a die crack and upon closer inspection it sure as heck looks like the outline of Lincolns head on the reverse below the memorial, it's perfectly aligned along with the obverse portrait, not sure what to think of it, any idea?

Definitely not a Die Clash. Looks like a scratch to me.

Yes @fioti nailed it. The best way to look for a die clash is to see what lines up using an overlay.

Even if the dies were rotated , nothing lines up for it to be a die clash...Most likely stain or scratch...@fioto nice of you to post overlay images..helps in ones learning

Remnants of a forhead and front of jacket clash event on the reverse.


Looking again, the jacket section looks to be staining.
