Really beautiful specimen, @joseph-dumont. I agree that it looks like a post-mortem trace – echinoids and other echinoderms are pretty quick to start healing and I don’t see any new growth around the trace.
Thank you @jbauer for the information about this echinoid trace -perhaps made by a gastrochaenid clam.
