A spelling mistake on thousands of pieces of Platinum Jubilee merchandising, calling it the "Platinum Jubbly", is proving a challenge for souvenir sellers.

The cups and plates were meant to mark the Queen's 70-year reign.

Clearance website boss Karl Baxter said - "in classic Del Boy-style" - he will pitch them as collectors' items.

"What could be more unique than our limited-edition misprinted crockery?" he said.

More than 10,000 pieces of the jubilee memorabilia were produced in China and sent to be sold in the UK - except for the slight problem of a misprint, which says "the Platinum Jubbly of Queen Elizabeth II".

This reminds me of when Prince Andrews brought out a limited edition of Speedo swimming trunks but they left the S off the logo

Not really a typo is it getting four characters wrong :suspect: just someone trying to be funny and get publicity which I guess has worked tbf

No chance any of these items actually have any value though

I still have two Charles and Diana wedding mugs, Royal Dalton. Over 40 years old now they are.
