I have an opinion on these, but would love to hear what others' say first.

Out of my leaque but first looks almost more carmine (ish) - second looks good color wise maybe a bright rose but the cancel seems a bit odd. Shootin in the dark but love these .

OK, no takers eh? Well, these are indeed 64b's on cover and they are Ray.mac's. I have them in my possession to simply study the actual pinks.
I posted these for two reasons: 1.- I wanted to see what they looked like on my screen and 2.- I wanted to see how others seen them on their screens.

I still see 2 very different colors - The bottom I can totally see pink but the top I would pass over . Maybe the cover color is drawing me away but it just doesn't scream pink.

I see what your seeing but I believe it's a combination of my scanner and your (our) screens. I assure you these are both pinks.

Neither to me look on screen through the net as they look in hand.

The stamp on the bottom cover (white, embossed), is such a pretty, brilliant color, and in this thread, it looks dull. Here is another image from my scanner and Photobucket:


Stamp on the top cover is darker rose and very rich:


Neither of these are certed, and neither need to be. I bought them both from Mike McClung....and they are definitely different shades, but both rose pink. It'll be interesting to see how these look compared with the images that Jeff attached.

Hey Ray was there only 1 78b in that lot? There are 2 places for them but only one. I just don't want to be on the hook for an expensive stamp ya know? Everything is A-OK but they all slid to one end during shipping so I sincerely doubt I got them back in the correct spots. -Jeff

Also. I'm going to send these back very soon. They make me nervous...lol

Sorry you had that scare, Jeff.....no problems. I should have taken that one out and the one with the Paid cancel......take your time.

It's all good. I'm very tankful for the privilege of receiving these for study. I agree that there is NO WAY one could describe the pinks and have one understand, you almost must have them in hand and see first hand to know what to look for and even then some of the shades need professional I.D.'d to be positive. Thanks a million Ray- You rock!

Hey Ray I'll get these back to you very soon. I got them under lock & key (in my gun safe) so they're in good hands! No fear I didn't forget just Daddy duty, lodge meetings, School helper duty, and spring cleanup has consumed a lot of my time lately.
