How many colors and/or screens?

 Assume a white base as well. The working file is a pdf in CYMK.

(how many blues or greens depending on your monitor) The pdf displays more teal.

I just added a specific reference to the blue/grn.in my first post.   How many?

Ink, are you counting white base, gray, yellow tan, and two blues? And only one blue if you wanted to skimp?

Adjusting the Color Range selector in PS, you might get by with 3 shades of green, 1 yellowish-lime, 1 beige
