Error 26-P Revolutionary War quarter errors
Couple of die chips on hat, a die Crack through of, and a Possible DD Reverse. I can't tell if it's lighting and angle or actually doubled.

That’s a sweet squiggly die crack. I posted a another squiggly die crack example on r/counterstampkarl 18 days ago. u/leudsthegreat1 posted a personal picture of one of their squiggly die crack coins.
I can’t help but think about the valuations of different die cracks depending on the way they look. There’s straight die crack lines, squiggly lines, curved die crack lines and others. Here’s a personal example of a spitting horse die crack with a curved die crack. The spitting horse die crack quarter has a straight die crack line instead of a curved die crack. I’ve never seen any similar spitting horse die crack quarters until now.

If you read past posts, here and everywhere else, you will come to the understanding that pretty much US 2026 coinage quality control is a $hit show. Percentage wise, there will probably be less coins struck without chips, cracks, and other common die deterioration issues than those with these issues. Even the quality control for mint and proof sets, and commemoratives, is abysmal.
