I have searched through thousands, likely tens of thousands of 54 Topps cards looking for the exclusive gray backs. They are extremely rare and they are very noticeable when flipping through a stack of raw cards if you know what your looking for. So noticeable in fact that you shouldn't have to glace at a card a second time to determine if it's a gray back. There is a huge difference between an aged card that spent time in the sun vs. a gray back. The paper stock was completely different. Pictures don't always pick up the correct coloring, lighting can alter images, monitors settings can be set differently, etc. however, based on the image I'm seeing on my screen I can tell you it's mislabeled. I'd flip past this card without looking twice.
