Correct answer: It has significantly more impact craters and fewer maria.

The Moon's far side, often mistakenly called the "dark side," presents a stark contrast to the near side. It is heavily cratered and has very few of the dark, smooth volcanic plains known as maria. This difference is thought to be due to variations in crustal thickness and heat distribution during the Moon's early formation. Photo: NASA, Wikimedia Commons, Public domain.
