Congratulations on your "Wild Whisker" find. I love the unique character of coins minted with cracked and worn dies, so am always easy to impress with such an example. Most of the time true error collectors won't refer to a die crack as an error, or so I understand.
The value of any coin is based on the same old three things: condition, scarcity, and demand. Sometimes something catches the publics' imagination, and builds a tremendous demand for that oddity. Other similar things, on the other hand, never gain a foothold in the public's consciousness, and never gain much value, either.
I'm sure there's a doctoral dissertation in there somewhere.
Best wishes.
