Re: late (13 months!) birth registration?

I have one birth cert where it says born 24th June 1851, but registered 21st June 1851. When I first read it I was puzzled but knew it could be an error. A family bible says he was born 24th May 1851, and he died in 1941, so was alive for the 1939 register where he says born 24th May 1851.
