I've got an old 1941 Australian Three Pence coin in circulated condition that appears to have a die crack coming from the denticle at the bottom of the "T" in Three to about the same amount of space above the "T", pretty much pointing directly at the little "K" initial in the fold of the ribbon on the reverse.
Is this an error do you think, and if so, is it common for these coins?

Thanx for the info on the die cracks.
And you've got some great photos of Australian errors.
