Violet has long been thought to be the scarcest color with gold being a close second and closing ground in the last 6-7 years. I think green (the dark forest green) is an overlooked background color scarcity though. I guess we'll never know for sure. I do know one thing, in going through my tabulated E94s by color and grade, I find the hardest (by far) color to find in nice shape is the olive. I have no clue why that is but while I can find violets and golds in VG, EX and EXMT, olives, when available always seem to be in P or F or GD. I can't explain this...
