Mark,

I believe it's considered a variation by most collectors. The color of the name is definitely lighter, whether it's gray or light black. The rest of the black print on the cards is normal, so I don't think they are print defects. Plus, there are plenty of both types. I haven't found either the black or gray tougher than the other.
