Title: Vatican misspells Jesus's name on commemorative medals

It's a good thing Jesus is known for his forgiveness.

The Vatican recalled a series of commemorative medals after it was discovered that Jesus's name had been misspelled as "Lesus."

The levil, it seems, is in the details.

The error, which was tweeted by the Catholic News Service, can be spotted in the upper right side of the coin.

According to CBS News, about 6,200 of the medals, which commemorate the beginning of Francis's papacy, were produced.

Via CBS News:

The medal features a portrait of Francis on one side, and on the other, a Latin phrase that the future pontiff says inspired him as a teenager to pursue the priesthood: "Vidit ergo Jesus publicanum et quia miserando antque eligendo vidit, ait illi sequere me." (Translation: Jesus, therefore, saw the publican, and because he saw by having mercy and by choosing, he said to him, 'Follow me.')

The Catholic News Service reported that four of the medals were sold before they could be recalled.

Apparently Vatican withdrawing #PopeFrancis medal cuz has "Lesus" instead of "Jesus." The 4 already sold will be collector's items. — Catholic News Svc (@CatholicNewsSvc) October 10, 2013

If it's any consolation to the person or persons who committed the sin of typo, this isn't the first high-profile case of a misspelled name.

For years, folks who believe Elvis Presley to be secretly alive have pointed to the apparently misspelled middle name on the King's gravestone. The marker reads, "Elvis Aaron Presley," though Elvis was born Elvis Aron Presley.

Elvis's official site explains that Elvis had intended to change his middle name to "Aaron" before his death. When he went about doing it, he found that his birth certificate already listed him as "Elvis Aaron Presley," which was technically a typo.

Hungry for more mistakes? Mental Floss lists other memorable typos, including the one found on the original tomb of James K. Polk. It referred to him as our country's 10th president. The problem was he was our 11th.

As embarrassing as it is, this mistake doesn't quite rise to the standard set by Lauderhill Florida back in 2002:

The plaque stated, "Thank you James Earl Ray for keeping the dream alive."

But the name should have been "James Earl Jones," the Tony Award-winning actor and voice of Star Wars' Darth Vader, The Lion King's Mufasa and CNN.

The plaque was intended as a gift from the city of Lauderhill to Jones, who will be the featured speaker at the city's annual Martin Luther King celebration Saturday. James Earl Ray shot and killed King in 1968.

It's the bankers fault !

Ray was the patsy in the King murder.

“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
