That label is fine, I rather have a original chewed up label than a repro label.

Interesting cuz mine doesn't have the stamp on the back label either.

Now that you mention that I guess I should have had an extreme close-up of the back label because there is a stamp in the upper left but it's extremely light.  I believe it is 00.  I don't know what that really means, however.
 

Oh I didn't doubt it was legit. The one I got didn't have the right screws in, and the back label doesn't have that print on it.  Also when looking at the Program Chip date when it was stamped, it was REALLY early, like late Nov of 87.
 

Where can you see a date on a chip?  How can you tell yours was late November?  I don't see anything but a year on mine.

OK, a sign from above I guess.  My NES died.  Cleaned the 72-pin connector, then purchased a replacement connector, then disabled the 10NES chip, and nothing, still dead.  Gray screen of death.  I'm really thinking it's time to put away my childish things.  I see Ebay in my future...

The 5 screw collecting, yes.  I only added about 8 to my collection in the past few weeks, and nothing more expensive than Castlevania.  My having my NES system and games, no.  And this Tyson game is a few years now and I use a different copy to actually play anyway.  I got discouraged finding out there are nearly 90 5-screw games and some have fewer than 10 in existence.  The NES breaking is just kind of the last straw.

Yeah, but heres an idea of rarity:

Mega Man
MTPO
Star Force

Those three are over $300 if you buy them individually

Gotcha 
Jaws
These are worth about $100 I think

Alpha Mission
Goonies II
Super Pitfall
These are about $20.

After that, none of the 5 screw variants add any extra value.  So keep a keen eye but as you get towards the end, you'll probably have to drop some big coin.  Also Stadium Events also comes in a 5 screw version, only 2 known so good luck on that haha. 

 
Why not add to your list the rare 3 screw games that are commonly found as 5 screw?

Sorry for the necro, but I just came across it in a Google search. I can't tell 100% from the photo, but the label looks like it has some moiré pattern (on the referee). This would indicate a reduction in size from a larger dpi scan without using interpolation. I could give you a definitive answer if you have a higher res photo or scan.
