The first digit (or the first two digits) of the model number indicates the color and material the pen is made, which are different depending on whether it is a [[Carter Coralite Pen]] or a [[Carter Pearltex Pen]]. In the first case some were still produced in hard rubber. The color table is shown at right, the colors are: ''Red Polished'', a solid red; ''Black Polished'' a solid black; ''Black Chased'' an enchased solid black; ''Red-Black Mottled'', a black mottled with red; ''Coralite Blue'' a dark blue marbled; ''Turquoise Blue'' (?) brown with red; ''Gray Squirrel'' a tone from pink to lavender; ''Coralite Green'', the classic jade green; ''Coralite Lacquer Red'', a coral red.

The ''Red Polished'' and ''Black Chased'' colors were made in hard rubber, the ''Black Polished'' and ''Red-Black Mottled'' were made in both hard rubber and celluloid, the other colors were only made in celluloid, and they are the ones that are more properly referred when talking about [[Coralite]], and they are found only since the introduction of celluloid in [[Carter]] production.

I colori ''Red Polished'' e ''Black Chased'' erano realizzati in [[ebanite]], i colori ''Black Polished'' e ''Red-Black Mottled'' erano realizzati sia in [[ebanite]] che in [[celluloide]], gli altri colori solo realizzati in [[celluloide]], e sono più propriamente quelli a cui si fa riferimento parlando di [[Coralite]] e si trovano solo a partire dall'introduzione di quest'ultima nella produzione [[Carter]].

The [[Pearltex]] versions (the material was introduced around 1929) adopted different number code for colors, always consistent of two digits, which is illustrated in the table on the left. The colors are: ''Pearl'', a pearly white (also called ''White Pearl''); ''Rose Petal'', a pinkish color; ''Cerulean Blue'', a turquoise blue (which can be confused with the ''Wave Green''); ''Wave Green'', an iridescent green; ''Black Pearl'' a black with pearl; ''Black & Pearl'' the classic black and pearl.

Le versioni realizzate in [[Pearltex]] (materiale introdotto all'incirca nel 1929) adottano invece una diversa numerazione dei colori, costituita sempre da due cifre, che si è illustrata nella tabella a sinistra. I colori delle versioni [[Pearltex]] sono: ''Pearl'', un bianco perlaceo (chiamato anche ''White Pearl''); ''Rose Petal'', un colore rosaceo; ''Cerulean Blue'', un blu turchese (che si può confondere con il ''Wave Green''); ''Wave Green'', un verde iridescente, ''Black Pearl'' nero perlato, ''Black & Pearl'' il classico nero e perla.
