There are a couple of threads on the post-war section of the boards that explain them. Most top out around $10 in raw NM condition. Basically, they were printed at a different printing house with different proofs. You can see some of the tape in the card images of green tints where they basically put the sheet back together in order to make the printing plates.
Cards are oversaturated with colors that give them a green hue, and most have cropping differences. Clarity is lacking on most. Some even have entirely different images.

PSA used to differentiate them, but stopped doing that a few years ago. I guess they had gotten enough wrong and had to pay for reslabbing that they decided to forego the Green Tint designation for the most part.
