Not sure. The ones in the auction are after-market 'upgrades' for older Judy Type 1/2 forks.
Mine are the original Type 3 springs that came with the fork.

which of course doesn't mention colours, but in TypeII systems Read = soft and <140lb riders.
I have the 1998 service manual and no colours mentioned in there, though it does give you the lengths of the springs
63/80mm setup
Primary = 67mm (knackered at 65mm)
Secondary = 92mm (knackered are 90mm)

63/80 X-Soft = Silver
100mm Soft = Yellow or Silver :roll:
Just notice you mention Original spring with the forks.
Therefore
STANDARD EQUIPMENT (SUPPLIED WITH JUDY)
63mm travel standard equipment (XC & SL)
(2) medium primary springs
(2) medium secondary springs
80mm travel standard equipment (XC,SL & XL/XLC)
(2) medium primary springs
(2) soft secondary springs
100mm travel standard equipment (XL/XLC)
(2) medium primary springs
(2) medium secondary springs
Might be of interest.
And Medium(left leg) Medium(right leg) - 170 to 190 lb

Why does 20" mean they would be firm though
:?
I ride a 20" frame and I'm unfit and still less than 160lb
When I was fit and rode all the time I was around 140lb.
I've been looking but still nothing has come up.

Probably a touch late, but at least it's here for reference.
Type 2
Spring Rate Adjusters
Soft = Beige
Medium = Black
Hard = Grey
Springs
Soft = Red
Medium = Yellow
Firm = Green
Extra Firm = Purple
Type 3
Primary (top) and Secondary (bottom) spring colours
63/80mm
Xtra Soft = silver
Soft = Yellow
Medium = Red
Firm = Black
So Type 3, red-red both sides (i.e assuming all 4 are red) would be medium-medium giving the range 170lb to 190lb under normal riding.
