An Post Apollo-gise for stamp misspelling

The word, which is found on the bottom left of the €1 stamp, is spelt “gaelach” - which translates as ‘the Irish’.

An Post have apologised after a member of the public spotted a spelling mistake on their new four-stamp Space Exploration collection.

The new set of postage stamps, launched to commemorate moon landing, feature a misspelling of the Irish word for ‘moon’.
