The upside is that after the mistake, the person at the top was fired as opposed to winning a fancy medal or receiving luxurious bailouts. Maybe Chile doesn't understand how a modern democracy works yet. BBC:
The general manager of the Chilean mint has been dismissed after thousands of coins were issued with the name of the country spelt wrongly.
The 50-peso coins - worth about 10 cents (6p) - were issued in 2008, but no-one noticed the mistake until late last year.
Instead of C-H-I-L-E, the coins had C-H-I-I-E stamped on them.
