Is this black spot a cavity on an 20-year-old crown? (Photos)

Asked By:Honest5036 in New York, New York

This crown is 20 years old. Is this dark black spot the surface of it worn out and showing the dark metal beneath (the same dark around the rim of my tooth) or is it somehow a cavity? The cap / crown I assume would cover the whole tooth?
