You're right Nancy. I've heard the term "gun metal blue" to describe a correct blue.
Also, in Trixie's example pictures, although the color does appear to be different shades of green, you'll notice they all have a yellow cast to them in different degrees. I do believe the difference seen in the pics is because of lighting, angle, etc. The test should be done with a yorkie in a dark room, while you stand in the other room with a flashlight shining in their eyes.
