Bryan, here's an Oldring card where you can see the two layers of blue. The light blue was applied first, then the dark blue. In this case the dark blue shifted slightly to the right.
This question was of interest to me because I always wondered how the light blue Plank came about. This was how it was explained to me. They simply missed the dark blue pass, then scrapped the card.
