These two stamps fill the spaces for #64 and 65 in an old collection I have. The first stamp is MNG. Scott lists the #64 as pink, and the number 65 as rose. They also describe a rose pink shade (#64b). I am leaning towards the latter, but welcome any opinions.

Welcome, Riley111.

Both stamps appear to be the more common Scott 65. The stamp on the left also appears to have a lightened smudge cancel, so may actually be used.

Welcome, Riley!

Even though Scott lists a certain number of colors/shades of #64/65, there are a near-infinite number of shades/sub-shades. the Pink and Rose Pink shades are distinctly different than what your stamps show. The scan appears to be a good image, and the stamps are quite clear, too, but I must agree with orstampman - the left stamp appears to have had a cancel removed or some sort of 'something' happened on its face.
