If you're talking about the Vatican coin with the incorrectly spelled "Lesus" instead of "Jesus" (or "Iesus"), I wish you the best. According to gift shop records, only four were sold. The rest were removed and (allegedly) destroyed.
It opens the door to a lot of humor... On the plane of reality, however, we have seen these kinds of errors in the past. Back in 1999 or 2000, the Mint of Portugal released a coin with Portugal misspelled. The problem is computer-aided-design and computer-aided-manufacturing (CAD/CAM). When the artist can send the work to the die-cutter without human intervention, mistakes do not get caught by watchful eyes. ... then think about your automobile with about 10,000 discrete parts... (Or as more Mercury astronaut Gordon Cooper told Johnny Carson one night: "You are sitting on top of a rocket whose every component was built by the lowest bidder.") We should be happy that all of our coins do not come out like this: Ueopa... Untied States of America... Canad-eh? ...
Heck. The boys should have used 'Google'. At least it has 'spell check' and it would have spared them from a myriad of embarrassment........
