It looks like an intentional mark from what's often called a 'Vise Job.' The line isn't from another small cent. If it was it would be more of a 'U' shape cut into the obverse of your coin. It looks more like the curved radius of a quarter of maybe even a half dollar if it was even another coin that was used to create the indention.It just Post Mint Damage or PMD and has destroyed any collectable value the coin once had.
It hurts a little to see a classic coin that's been tortured like this.
