$105$


Mistake

$105$ is the largest integer such that every odd integer less than it and prime to it is a prime number.


While all integers are coprime to $1$ (and $105$ in particular), remember that $1$ is not classified as a prime number.

The canonical exposition of this result is for $1$ to be specifically mentioned.
