Mis-print on Coin From Chile

[Saturna]

The 50-peso coin has CHILE spelled CHIIE. It's from 2008, but apparently no noticed until now. Thousands are still in circulation.

I have family in Chile, and I have told everybody to look out for the coins. If they come into any of them, they're going to send them for me. These coins have been selling for around $80 each on eBay. The coins are only about 10cents each in value. Not a bad markup if you can get your hands on some.
