Hi guys...Take a look at these two quarters...The one on the left is normal with the date on it, but when they made the "1952-2002" quarter, they put the date on the obverse , BUT left a star that was beside the normal date...It looks like it is out of place..the word "Canada" has a star on either side for conformity, but the single star looks out of place...What do you think..?

Dont you think it would look better in the picture below..?

Because it keeps the Moose from waving his antlers around too much and tearing a hole in your pocket ?
