Does anyone know how to identify a Washington 3 cent stamp blue green color? I have two envelope covers c 1880; one with two green Washington 3 cent stamps and one with one blue green Washington stamp.

This link to the Stamp Smarter 3¢ Bank Note Identifier shows details of the secret marks.

The top 1.75 stamps are Nationals, 147

and the perf toned fancy negative star canceled stamp is a Continental, 158. Therefore, your covers are circa 1870's.
