That is one huge '8'.

How strange that the 8 would be so huge in relation to the other digits. Seems like a problem engravers might have had 100+ years ago.

The 8 does look rather large.

It's not the 8 that's off.

Look more closely.

It's the 201 that's moved up or down.

Just a click of the mouse away. Another computer image from the Mint that is inaccurate. They are getting good at it..

Yeah, you should notice on their roll set for 2018, the loonie has two dates on both sides. And also, you should look at the size of the 8 in the 2008 nickel. It's the same.
