I have two 1x1 clips with the thin o-clip that are a very weird colour. It isn’t
sun bleached. Anyone seen this before?

I have included some regular light gray pieces and a dark gray plate for reference.
Any recommendations on how to list these pieces?

Thanks.

Strangely, Light grey but thought to be a different material, they turn up quite
often.

Needs a note to say that it’s a darker shade, i have some.

Thank so much! I had not seen that note. The color is almost like a mix of pearl
gray or flat silver got added to the mix.

If I'm not mistaken, LEGO experimented with Nylon in those parts.
Bought some here a couple of years ago here.

Could be the old grey or even some faded ones.
