Difference between opaque token vs JWT?

Comment

An opaque token is not the only kind of OAuth token. 
The opaque token is one kind of token; JWT can be used as another kind of OAuth token that is self-contained.
JWT, in contrast, are not opaque. 
JWT actually contains meta data that can be extracted and interpreted by any bearer that has the token.
