Hi all,

As I was parting out a set I stumbled upon 3 trans-black 1x1 plates. The only
problem is, one of them looks like it got a little too much coloring in its plastic.

As you can see on the first image the third one looks plain black, but when held
against the light it's visible it really is transparant.

Is there a diffrent color for ultra dark transparant or how schould I list these,
fellow store owners?

What set did these come from?
Could it be one of these?
