Questions: are these errors?

Rashka the Slayer: White Homelands cards all have a black copyright date, except my Rashka.. has anyone else noticed this?
Mercadian masques foil Mountains: older foil cards had a slightly larger star on the bottom of the card. However, I have 2 foil MM Mountains (#345/346). 345 has the larger star and 346 has the smaller one.. any info on this?

Hopefully someone can answer this better for you, but as a quick bit of info, in regards to the star issue, if you recall, that there were some promo Masques foil lands given out, I think in the Arena program.
If someone is not able to come up with a proper answer soon, check Ebay for sealed Masque lands - they come in sets of 10, and if you can find one of these auctions (they are not all that rare to find) you will get your answer. Hope this helps, even just a little bit.
Time for me to get some zzz's

Those MM foils were discussed in another topic, i'll see if i can find a link. Bottom line is this: cards foiled before Masques (Destiny, Legacy, any promos), had the larger stars, Masques forward had smaller stars. Some Masques lands were, of course, distributed in booster packs, and starters, and so forth, but, since it was the first time foil lands were printed, they were also distributed as tournament prizes, in packs of 10.
The sealed packs are harder to find than silver.paladin claims, I have bought almost every one that has gone on eBay in the past 3 or 4 months, and they arent that common. If you *do* see any, send me a link, please.

Neither. There were quite a lot made both ways, and they are both worth about the same, and the same as a foil from any other set - less than $1.00 apiece.

My Rashka also has a white copyright line, as does the image on gatherer.wizards.com so I would tend to think that they are all this way as well.

Apologies for the necro, but in Kamon's pic, the Raksha has had its copyright line blurred out in Photoshop.
Nice try.

Well, that picture is straight from essentialmagic's servers, and considering how compressed the rest of the image is, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just lost in the background due to it being white.

uh, the german rashka is in black.... so is the german chandler, which is white in (spanish, portuguese, english (so far))... Where's the misprint? in German, where it is different from english, or in other languages, where it is equal to english, but incorrect?

I'm talking about white cards. Rashka is the only white card in homelands with a white copyright line. (English)
I guess the German Chandler is another similar misprint.
