The Vatican has issued a recall of around 6,000 commemorative coins in which the messiah's name was misspelled.

The commemorative coin, a medallion celebrating Pope Francis, had included a Latin phrase that had inspired him to take to the cloth, but the phrase on the recalled coins read thus:

"Lesus therefore sees the tax collector, and since he sees by having mercy and by choosing, he says to him, follow me."

The coins, made of bronze, silver, and gold, priced at $108, $135, and $203 respectively. The coins with the typos had been recalled, but there are four that had already been sold and will be collector's items.

"Regardless of what the Vatican decides to do now, it's an interesting purchase for a collector," Francesco Santarossa, owner of a religious items shop near St. Peter's Square said in an interview. "I don't think they ever made such a mistake in the 600-year-long history of papal medals.

While the Vatican may have had a previously error-free history in creating the commemorative medals-struck to celebrate the election of a new pope and assists in income for the Vatican-there had been several other errors in the past.

Among the most famous of religious typos were that of the 1631 edition of the King James bible, which has been called "The Wicked Bible," In the list of the Ten Commandments, the Exodus 20:14 reads: "Thou shalt commit adultery."

King Charles I of England and the then Archbishop of Canterbury had not been very forgiving of the title and had most of the copies burned. Only 11 copies of the naughty bible edition remain today, two of which are at the New York Public Library, and The British Library in London.

Another famous error is in the 1612 edition of the King James Bible, called the "Printer's Bible" which states in Psalm 119:161, "Printers have persecuted me without a cause." It should have been 'Princes" instead, and the error was believed to have been purposely made by a disgruntled typesetter.
