I'm trying to better identify a couple of 1861 Washington 10 cent issues and am having trouble differentiating between green and dark green. I guess my question is how dark should dark green be? I believe the stamp on the left could be a 62b while the one on the right is a 68. The stamp on the right is representative of several of this shade that I have. The one on the left appears to be a shade darker than the others. None of these stamps possess grills. Any thoughts that anyone may have on my comparison would be appreciated. I'd like to fill the empty 62b space that I have in my album. Thanks, John R.

Looks like 68 and 68a to me. 62 has a different design, with the bottom line framing the stars missing.
