Does the crack reach the head?
Most cracks are minor errors at best. If it reaches the head it could be a spiked head. Some cracks are rim to rim and may be precursors to a Retained Cud and perhaps later a Cud.
Check http://cuds-on-coins.com/ for more info on these.

Also Machine Doubling, that is not a premium for the coin. Just an event that happened after the strike that altered the fesh struck devices. (common) It appears on your coin from the tops of the motto devices pushing down wards and the left side of the 'L' on Liberty. On hub doubling you need to see enlargement of the devices and not reduction:
