84-CC Morgan die cracks

I was at my local dealer this morning and he tried to sell me a Capital Plastics holder with five different mint Morgans. I had no interest in any other than the CC which was an '84 with very cool die cracks around the stars on the obverse and the legend on the reverse. Is this rare? Is anyone other than me willing to pay a premium for this? I know that I will have to overpay to convince him to break up that set.
I collect circulated U.S. silver

Don't think so. Die cracks are common on Morgan dollars, particular in later die states.
Actually, for some issues, I would pay a premium for a specimen without die cracks, indicative of an earlier die state.

Okay, I gest. But the truth is these are very common and command no premium in my experience.
