I know colors are hard via scanner and monitor. But Sc RB21 comes in a few shades and am curious if these 3 are the same color if possible to tell? If not - venture to guess ? Tks!

Sticking bits of the three scans together does seem to show a difference.

Show us a scan of all of them at once, close to each other, for a better answer.

Since you are querying two forums, I hope you get the same answer. But my guess is that there are known color variations for this stamp, and your examples fall within those ranges. Nice to keep them on the same page to show the differences, though.

The above is correct. As usual, the idea was to get them out quickly, so shade varieties are not unusual.

Thanks! Used Gimp, which is a graphics editor, like Photoshop, on screengrabs of the three scans. Opened up the three files in the program, selected areas of two of the files, copied the selections and then pasted them on top of the third file.

Gimp's free to download- it can be a bit clunky, but at least it's free and not subscription-based.
