Description:: Mi distinguishes this variant by its thick hard paper only and not by colour (see Mi:3ax). Sn and Sg distinguish this variant by paper and colour (see Sn:5, Sg:9). There is no separate YT listing for this thick paper variation. See variant Yt:6b on normal paper, which is somewhat less valuable.
