Hi guys, can the back of magic cards had varying degrees of darkness/lightness from the same set? I have 2 revised cards and on one of them, the back is noticeably darker.
The darker backed one is an underground sea, and I checked the front against my other undergound seas. Nothing too crazy or out of the ordinary color wise for the front. Also checked using a uv test, blue inner layer, print patterns and solid blacks. It passed all and the darker back was the only point of difference. The one on the right in this pic is a regular land. Still good or should I be concerned?
It's suspicious. Not normal but not a definite sign of fakery. It's a pretty common type of minor misprint for the era. The backs are printed before the fronts so they can differ quite a bit.

Is this normal or within range of the print run?
Thanks in advance!
