Hi everyone,  
Was just going through some of my cards and saw an abnormal 1st edition stamp on one of my Squirtles.  
Would you call this a grey stamp card?

You can call it whatever you want when trying to sell. Grey comes in all sorts of variants with some being ghostly grey and others being slightly lighter than this. That’s pretty dark but sure just put it next to another card so people can see the difference when you list.

Not planning on selling, just thought it was a nice quirck 😊.  
Harder to see on the pictures than in real I must say.

I don’t really consider the shade when i call It a grey stamp, I simply look at the lettering. Grey stamp, no matter the shade, seems to usually (always?) have that slight shadowing effect on the letters like they’re slightly raised.
