This coin was issued to correct the misspelling pointed out by triggersmob. It was minted in South Africa instead of Philadelphia.

A small mistake featured in the original obverse dies, engraved in 1929, which was later fixed the next year. The mistake is that one of the letters misses a line connecting two parts. For an unknown reason, the later nickel coins featured the original mistake.

Lower Canada Bank of Montreal Un Sous ND (1835). The Soho Mint accidentally used the plural of "Sou" for the denomination.
