Yes, Jane is right, locIfInCRC is defined as follows:
locIfInCRC OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX INTEGER
ACCESS read-only
STATUS mandatory
DESCRIPTION
"Number of input packets which had cyclic
redundancy checksum errors."
::= { lifEntry 12 }
BTW, this MIB variable is in OLD-CISCO-INTERFACES-MIB which Cisco
deprecated in IOS 12.0. They use equivalent or similar counters in newer
MIB modules to provide the information.
