Looks like a deep scratch displacing the metal.
Please include a complete photo of both sides of the coin when posting.

Yes sorry but that is definitely a scratch. A die crack would show up proud when compared to the field of the coin.

. Just to be clear:It is a scratch on the coin not the die. It is not a die crack.

I'm not an expert but I've had heavy scratches on some of my coins that I thought was a die crack. To me it looks like a heavy scratch and not a die crack.
