Always cool to find new cards that this happens to.

By the way, Coat of Arms is an extreme example.

The dimensions of the art area on cards with the new border is slightly different than on the older version, so any art that was reused on a card with the new border with be cropped a little differently.

Seeing the difference between 5th and 6th Edition is neat though!

That's indeed the case. If you collect such cards: Rod of Ruin was changed from 4th to 5th and from 5th to 6th.
