1965 VIN - Color Code T

Hi,

I have a 1965 F100 with color code T. Is this really Sandshell Beige as none of the color charts show it for 1965. Is it the same as the 1962 Sandshell Beige? I'm trying to order touch-up paint but they don't list "T" for 1965.

Here is my VIN with my decoding from the shop manual.
