Virgin Island Quarter broken die error worth slabbing or junk?

Looks like someone at the mint wasn't checking the quarters as a whole slug came out with a broken die that looks like an added leaf. These pictures show it, is this worth even slabbing? What is it worth, any guesses?

    Nice error, probably not worth the slabbing fee, but nice nonetheless

    You could certainly sell that on ebay

    It is hard to photograph as I had shadows to the side and that is two photos from different coins. In hand it looks like the one leaf has extra leafs under it or something, it is quite noticeable.

    This is how the quarter should look.

    The added part is the same color as the coin as not darker like in the picture, that is the shadow.

    This one looks closest.

    Added- I see one sold for a whopping 99 cents on Ebay so they aren't worth it, although in hand they look amazing.
