Though it's always difficult to accurately identify colors on the computer (variations of scanners, monitors etc.) I'd hazard a guess that that looks like a red brown. My 2c worth.
And I guess you perforations will give you your defining answer. I see each is different.

I know. Just trying to write it so our friends south of the border wouldn't be confused by my accent.

Its hard to tell a perf measurement from only five perfs (which is all you show in the picture), but it appear to me the measurement is closer to 11. Given the color is red-brown (at least in the image you posted), I think you have a 95.

I was recently measuring these very stamps and they didn't necessarily measure exactly at 11.
