There is a line, almost like a die crack, on the obverse of this Buff. It is thru the Five. Wondering what this is? Is it a crack, Cud or nothing? Thanks.

Yes, die gouge makes more sense.

Thanks for the feedback. Would a die gouge be synonymous with a die break or crack? Are these interchangeable terms or are they all distinct?

No a die gouge and a die crack are two different things.
