The words on a coin are impressed on the die which is used to strike the coins. I am not aware of any way a striking error could change the spelling of a word. Misspelled words have occured on US coins though as a result of an engraving error. On the reverse [tails] side of an 1801 half cent, The word "UNITED" was spelled "IINITED".
