1964 quarter possible error?

I recently acquired this coin and was looking over it for errors when I stumbled across what looks to be a line or crack, but the coin doesn't look bent or misshapen any other way, any info would be greatly appreciated. The defect is to the lower right side, from the rim up through the branch.

You'll need to post a picture. Cracks in a die appear as squiggly, raised lines.

Sorry about that here it is

Cannot tell for sure...If it is raised, it is a die break.

Cool, maybe I can take a better picture this afternoon when I get home, I really appreciate it!

Looks to me like a flaw in the planchet (the center appears recessed), the blank that was used for striking the coin. Better pictures will clarify which it is--planchet flaw or die break.

Kind regards,

George
