If you’re advertising your coin, please do it on the Buy, Sell, Trade board. It’s not good etiquette to post a question and point to where you’re selling it.
In any case, that coin has a lot of environmental damage to it. There might be a possible strike thru but I’ll let the experts speak to that. It isn’t straight up obvious.

"remarkable error coin"
@Bixbycoins
Your coin is misattributed. It's not a "remarkable error" nor a die crack. It did suffer a lot of surface contact and/or environmental damage. If you want to build a reputation as a responsible eBay seller, you might want to modify/cancel that listing
Also, you probably should remove the link in your post. It does violate the rules and there us a chance you'll be banned from the site. If you think leaving it up until to generate interest, this is the wrong place. Members here are knowledgeable numismatists and will immediately recognize this as a damaged coin, worth no more than face value
I see nothing that indicates an error with this coin except for the ebay description!!

the "line" part of the loop-and-line does not go over the letters but it does go between the letters. that's not a die crack and that is not a strike through.
it is common for cracks to have metal raised above the coin and uncommon to have them be such fluidly flowing lines.
Still laughing 😂
"This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing."
Yes seller forgot the error
quater? where's the nickle? lol
@Bixbycoins.... Welcome aboard... You have been notified of your error in listing that here... and also of the error in your identification of the issue on the coin. Take heed, and I suggest you ask questions when you think you see an error on a coin. Cheers, RickO

Welcome to the board. Hopefully you will take the observations offered seriously and the sarcasm as merely boredom. An important but simple rule to selling coins is knowledge. Study books, internet information, question established dealers and forum information regarding what you plan or wish to sell, before ever listing it. You will build an unfortunately bad reputation very quickly without that step. I wish you best of luck and hope you ask more questions on the forum.
