    Large scratch/damage or could it be a die crack?

    The photos appear to show a scratch, however, it could be a die crack, but the blurry photos are a problem for me.
    Second thought, scratch due to displaced material near jawline.

    Without better pics, I'm leaning toward "Die Crack", but it's not where die cracks normally appear.

    Can't say for sure but die cracks tend to wander more than draw a straight line.
