There are Delaware quarters struck with a cracked die. This "Spitting Horse" was hot for a while, but I haven't noticed much about it since. There are always errors like coins struck through a foreign material, planchets showing the copper core on one or both sides, etc. Several of the state quarters have had die errors, the most recent are two varieties of the Wisconsin quarter with an extra leaf on the ear of corn.
