Hello all Stamp Masters,

I noticed that the 3c Washington issues are usually Rose colored.
#64 though is Pink colored.

Can you tell me from this set of 4, the left hand Stamp, it is different from the rest. Is this the standard Pink and rose? Is the left hand side Stamp Pink?

Regarding your thread title, the stamps you posted were issued starting in 1861, not 1851.

This 1861 stamp comes in a wide range of colors. Of the zillions of them out there very few fall into either pink or rose pink. None of these look like pink or rose pink to my eye. I'm very confident none of them are pink. The pink color is often described as "cotton candy pink." Rose-pink is a tougher call, but I doubt they are that either.
