I would be all over this, but I'm spending too much on artisan caps lately :( :rolleyes:

Post by: FrostyToast on Fri, 24 April 2015, 09:02:37: Documentation is a bit weird on these though.
I know m0115 should have orange and m0116 should have either cream or salmon.
I dont know about m0312 though.

Edit: just saw that this would be cream or salmon as well

M0115 is orange for about the first half of the run (<.5M) and salmon after. All the M0116s I have had have been orange.

Earliest production AEK2s (1989 copyright) can have salmon, but the vast majority (1990 copyright) are dampened cream. Most of the later production (1995 copyright) are dampened white.
