I'm suspicious. Sellers labels it as a "clip". No 40-year collector/dealer would make that mistake.

Kanga, I guess he incorrectly labeled it, kinda weird.  Not sure how he made that mistake, but it does happen sometimes. Hopefully it's what I hope it is.

I believe the "black" on the reverse is the result of the lighting. The coin is lit from around 8:00 and the double struck tab is bent down so it is in shadow compared to the rest of the coin.

Please post your own pictures when you get the coin, especially the reverse.
Otherwise; its a good deal.

Great buy. I do not feel the darkened area is a lighting issue. There is a greenish tint in a few areas. Shading wouldn't give off a greenish coloring, I would think it would be the same grey/black coloring. It almost looks like it has some type of environmental corrosion were some type of liquid stayed in the little metal pocket created by the double strike. Regardless it a cool coin to have.

Excellent Errers and Varietys!
I guess the dark area was poor lighting.
