1948 Allied Occupation Of Germany Bi-Zone 5-Ph

Is there another color for 5ph ?

1 color issued in both perforations.

Although originally planned to be issued as the color yellow.

Thank you Johan
I have a very large number of this stamp , but this is different and I do not know why .

The 5pf stamp exists in such a wide variety of color shades that even the Michel Specialized doesn't assign separate catalog numbers nor individually list the color shades. Michel gives the following color ranges/shades: dark grey-ultramarine to dark lilac-ultramarine, dark cobalt

The 5pf does exist in 2 design types: Type I (5 steps in front portal), Type V (4 steps in front portal).

Both the 5pf stamps you showed in the last post are Type V.

Thanks for posting a picture of side-by-side stamps. As you can see, the right stamp is heavily toned, in this specific case the toning makes the overall color darker that it really is (the darker paper affects our perception of the color shade, but in other cases the toning could be a result of sun/heat exposure that would make the stamp color lighter than it actually is). As such, you cannot accurately determine the color shade.

Michel gives the same price for all the color shades of the 5pf.

Just a minor technical clarification of a post above, but the Type V stamp actually exists in 3 perforations: 14x14.25, 11, 11.25x11

perforation differences may be not common

My 2009 Michel gives the same catalog value for all 3 perforations, in the case of an off-cover used stamp with watermark in falling dashes orientation.

For climbing dashes watermark orientation, one perforation has a very minor 20c increase in catalog value.

My assumption here is that the catalog value reflects how common/rare a stamp variety might be.

The above information applies only to the Type V 5pf stamp, and all value at 1 Euro or less, so all should be fairly common.
