My first thought when looking at the Lincoln Memorial cent was that it had an oblong plating blister in the 5th memorial building bay. While looking at known doubled died in this era, however, I've noticed a lot of column doubling that looks similar to me. Is there a reliable way to differentiate between the two?

Below is a picture of the feature in question, as well as full pictures of the obverse and reverse.

Looks like a linear trail gas bubble.

If you can depress it with the tip of a wooden toothpick, then it definitely is a plating bubble. However, not all plating bubbles will depress in this way.
