Interesting fact

The Michael Collins 20 Euro gold coin from Ireland, issued in 2012, features an error in its design. The coin's obverse side bears an image of Michael Collins, an Irish revolutionary leader, but his name is misspelled as "Micheal Collins" instead of the correct spelling, "Michael Collins." This error was not corrected in the coin's minting process, making it a unique and collectible item for numismatists.
