1943 die crack starts in the coat of arms at the bottom just above she N in CANADA. The die crack continues upwards along the edge past the leave on the left side half way through the harp box then about half way up it turns left out through the staff behind the arms up to the bottom right of the flag across into the top of the crown and stops on the right side just before it exits the crown.

Die clashes are fairly common on early 40’s fifty cent coins.
What you have is a nice one extending that far.
