I recently purchased this beautiful nem from a fellow R2R'er as a RTBA but to me it looks to be kinda rainbow'ish... not that it matters but wanted opinions. Rose or Rainbow?

Lokks like a rose to me.
 
As reference I got these two images.... From what I've seen RBTA aren't multicolored. This is why I had the question.
Rose

Rainbow

Rose bta often have the green around their mouth or at the base of the tentecles. also Nems that aren't fully inflated have a darker color to them as the pigments are closer together. Yours will prob open up to look close to that "rainbow" reference pic, but I wouldn't really call that a rainbow, which usually have three distinct colors, usually including yellow/orange
 
Here are a couple more photos of the Nem in question....

Do you have a photo of "true" rainbow?
