I like Gary's suggestion. "Antique" suggests the weathered copper, and eliminates the confusion by having the color "copper" in the description (ie "copper green") of a basically green element. "Sea green" is okay, too, but I think "antique green" (...) (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Or Grey-Green? That's the literal translation of "verdigris", after all (though the etymology is actually supposedly a corruption of the words for "green brass"). Doug (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) The name for a weathered copper color is "VERDIGRIS" (verd-dig-gris). But that might be a mouthful. We should come up with a universal Lego name for this color. Say....... Antique Green, or??? Gary Istok (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)
