  The term "Dark Side" refers to foreign (non-US) coins.

  To the best of my knowledge, dark side is the term used to refer to world coins.

  As a long-standing member of the Darkside, it does indeed refer to World coin collectors, as Greyside refers to Canadian collectors,
  as Lightside (for some inexplicable reason) refers to US coin collectors.

  Sometimes Canadian coins are refered to as the Grey Side.
