Hard Rock Roulette Color Problems

This post is a follow up to my earlier post about completing my Hard Rock Roulette collection.

Shown below are two Hard Rock chips and three Paulson color sample chips. The chip in the center of the top row is the "Orange" #2 Roulette that I bought in error on ebay, I thought I was buying the #2 chip that matches the #1 chip shown in the 2nd row of the scan below.

Obviously these are different chips, but the colors attributed to them is what really drives me crazy. TCR lists the 7 colors of these Roulettes as Blue, Green, Pink, Purple, Yellow, Orange and Peach. I don't have any problem with the first 5 colors, but the problem comes in with the "Orange" and "Peach" chips.

I have put the Paulson coloro samples next to the two chips in question. The #2 chip in the top row most closely matches the "Fire Orange" sample color,especially when you look at the edge of the chips when they are held on edge next to each other.

The #1 chip in the bottom row is supposed to be "Peach" but as you can clearly see the chip is actually "Arc Yellow".

I have always refeered to these chips as "Hot Orange" (the chip in the top row) and "Orange" the chip in the bottom row.

Doc Myers or anyone else - what do you think ?? Neither chip is Peach but what should we call the other two chips - "Fire Orange" and "Arc Yellow". If we use "Arc Yellow" will this cause confusion with the "Yellow" color in this Series of Roulette chips.

Really confused in Delaware,
