the die break runs to the rim, but there you have it
A nice little catch 😎
The steel planchets were brutal on the dies in 1943, the steel being much harder than copper, dies wore out quicker and developed problems much earlier in their life.

A frequent did break location on the Lincoln cent. Nice coin.
Looks like a Retained Interior Die Break.
