Not a die clash, nothing on the obverse matches a long parallel line. Most likely cause is Feeder Finger Damage, the mechanism that feeds coins to the dies.

Scroll about half way down the page for some images of feeder fingers

It's a long gouge on the die. Like biokemist said, probably from a feeder finger.
