The Office of Government Commerce, an office of the treasury in the United Kingdom, is commonly known as OGC. An investment of £14,000 was put into a logo design, which resulted in a nice formal image of the OGC acronym. 
According to insiders, within seconds of unveiling employees spotted the problem with this proud logo. This despite it already being etched in mouse pads and pens. If you turn it on it's side, you should notice the problem.
