I think it may be a die chip.

More like a gouge. It is fairly straight. That would happen on a gouge. A die chip would be irregular in shape. This seems to symmetrical to be a chip.

It is definitely not a die chip. The edge is not sharp enough to be a chip.

It could be a die gouge - somewhat likely.

It could also be a mark left behind by a die clash. A somewhat less likely possibility.
