Default 1962 Salada Junket coins

1962 coins came in Salada tea or Junket pudding mix boxes and were made of plastic with paper inserts printed with the player's image. Many of the images have variations with the player's position or jersey colors which makes the set slightly more interesting to collect. The plastic color of the coins seems to have been assigned to specific teams.

I am a Dodgers collector, so naturally, I found that their coin color was blue, however, in my searching to put the team set together I have come across Dodgers players in other colors. Since the publications I have access to don't make a point to reference this I was hoping for some feedback in regards to this.

Were the colors of the coins different depending on the product they were packaged in? Or is this just a case of someone removing the paper insert and pasting it in a different coin?
