I think just Post Mint Damage
Pretty straight for a crack.
Appears to be incuse so I would say it is a scratch.

I would like to see a better photo of the coin, as it is possible that it was struck on a gouged planchet. When this occurs, the gouge is partially "healed" back together by the striking of the coin (once you've seen a few examples, it has a distinctly different look than a post Mint scratch). Because a planchet gouge is present before the coin is struck, it will also pass through the devices of the coin without being deflected (as can happen when a coin is scratched post Mint). It appears there may be some indication of these features on the OP photo, but I'd like to see one or two clearer photos.

Could these reverse photos be an example of that feature your explaining ?

wouldn't metal flow make a planchet scratch crooked?

What ?
I would have to agree with that statement of movement.
