I've tried to enhance the image to show the imprint of (picture) Scott UC2 missing it's (orange) color under the revalue.
I didn't see any reference to the error (missing color) in my Scott Specialized -- granted it is the 2017 edition.
Any help on the potential rarity would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Here is a "partial" albino:
And here is the most interesting one -- post office didn't accept responsibility for their error!
