  • Movie Goof (incorrectly regarded as a mistake): When John Wilkes Booth is told to leave the saloon that he is in, just before the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, it shows him traveling to Ford's Theater by horse. In fact, the saloon that Booth visited just before the assassination is actually right next door adjoining Ford's Theater and now the present location of the Hard Rock Cafe-DC. However, it is an historical fact that he rode away from Ford's Theater.
  • The document briefly seen in Riley's book is an autopsy report for Marilyn Monroe.
  • Movie Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): During the infiltration of Buckingham Palace, Gates states that Queen Elizabeth II was not in residence due to the absence of a flag flying there. In fact there is always a flag flying at the palace. Prior to the death of Princess Diana the presence of the Queen was indicated by the flying of a flag, however at the time of Diana's death the palace wished to fly a flag at half mast as a mark of respect. Since then The Union flag is flown when the Queen is not in residence and the Royal Standard is flown when she is. This allows for a flag to be flown at half mast during a time of mourning.
  • Movie Goof (errors made by characters, possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Even though Ben nor Patrick nor Emily mention the Cascajal Block - a carved slab with 62 glyphs which dates to the Olmec's San Lorenzo Tenochtitlán phase - as to why they think the plank is Olmec, the glyphs on the Block that match the glyphs on some Olmec artifacts have never been identified as writing, and the rest of the glyphs on the Block are unknown and indecipherable. So, Emily is wrong when she says that the plates in the City of Gold will help decipher the Olmec language.
