Coins Celebrating Pope Misspell Name Above All Names

ROME — It seems absurd that any official Vatican memorabilia would misspell the name Jesus.
Or that the Italian institute that mints coins, passports and postage stamps would make such an error.
And yet the fact remains: a new series of special commemorative coins honoring Pope Francis got it wrong.

They call him Lesus.



“Everybody makes mistakes,” said the Rev. Federico Lombardi, the Vatican spokesman, on Friday.
“Even people who make coins.” <snip>

The sentence, by the Venerable Bede, a seventh-century theologian,
contains Pope Francis’ self-chosen motto, “miserando atque eligendo,
which loosely translates as “lowly but chosen.”<snip>

Daniel Burke, who co-edits a religion blog on CNN.com, wrote,
“For the love of Lesus, the Vatican could sure use an infallible copyeditor.”
