IRELAND 1996 , 1 Penny , cracked die

I have just bought a digital microscope & have started to take a few snaps with it.
I noticed this about a couple of months ago, has anybody else got one?
Are cracked dies etc. noted anywhere in the catalogue ?

Die cracks are a very common error. They are not in our catalog.

Just got around to having a closer look at the coin & it has 3 cracks on the other die.
