Quote: Does this make it more collectable or just ...ugly?
I think that it is collectible. Coin Digest says "Struck on a Large Lamination Crack" is Scarce to Rare. If you check ebay sales, you will find, roughly, sales for $1 to $40+ (heavely dependent on the grade of the coin and the denomination).
I am not 100% certain, however that your coin would fit that description (?)
