Is this a Die crack on a 2004-P Cent?

Sorry for the blurry pictures. I was looking through some change today and I found a 2004-P Lincoln Cent with this raised line under the Lincoln Memorial building. What do you think it is?

    Holy schmokes- I think I saw a molecule out of place in that first pic! image

    Die crack, I guess.

    Or a small booger.

    Hopefully the former of the two.

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

    It is a die gouge. Kinda like this one where Lincoln is dropping his doob.

    In fact, if you compare the two gouges, we now know WHERE Abe dropped his doob.....In front of the Lincoln Memorial!
