Default 1996 Accord EX - wrong color code in door jam

I recently picked up a 1996 accord EX with light front end damage to fix and use as a daily beater going to work and evening classes. I have parts ordered to repair it, but it seems as though Honda put the wrong color code in the door jam. The car is dark green (not sure which one - 3 different greens were available for the year), but the color code listed in the door jam is for heather mist. The car was never repainted (I have the carfax and I bought it from a guy at work who has had it for the last 6 years). Any thoughts on which green it could be judging from the pics?

Hood looks like the darker green, I think the name was Sherwood Green. But the back looks like a blue for some reason. Prob just the paint...

Definitely not my Eucalyptus Green.

It's definitely one color - it's was sunny when I took the pics of the back, that's why it looks lighter then the inside ones. Thanks for the input. I was leaning towards the G78P Sherwood Green.
