Here are a couple of great colors shown side by side for reference. The CD 154 is from Spain and is embossed (F-Skirt) E.S.A. (R-Skirt) C.T.N.E. Color is deep forest green, and condition is superb with only a pinpoint tic on the left side of the crown and a fleabite at the front base edge to the left of E. The CD 162.3 Star is EIN [010] (F-Skirt) [Star] SB; the color is glowing blue; and there are widely scattered miniscule bits of white snow floating all around. The only damage I can find with close inspection is a tiny white scratch that can be seen in the photo to the left of the light reflection on the front upper wire ridge. There is an elongated open bubble on the inside of the inner skirt base edge that I do not consider damage. Click on View Original to see details. As for the thick blue Star signal, once again considering color and condition, I'm asking $12 plus postage. The Star is sold.
