There are several terms depending on the nature of the fault.
Error - would be the most popular term and covers a multitude of possibilities including die faults and inconsistencies.
Mule - is a coin that has had the obverse and reverse sides of the coin struck by non-matching dies, for example, a British 5 Pence coin on the obverse and Bailiwick of Jersey 5 Pence coin on the reverse.
Mis-strike - is a coin that has not been struck centrally or properly on the blank.
Upset - is a coin where the obverse and reverse are unintentionally out of alignment (accidental coin rotation).
Brockage - is a coin where one side of the coin has an indented design due to the previously struck coin not having been ejected from the die before the new blank was inserted. This can account for double headers although one side is incuse and back to front.

Does a 1938 Australian Crown with double rim fault make it more valuable?

The 1938 Australian Crown is a sought after collectible coin and only about 101,000 were minted. Many have been melted down for the silver. If the coin and/or the fault is genuine, a double rim fault would certainly increase its value. A reputable coin dealer will be able to verify the coin and give a valuation.
