Dark-brown to purple-brown prints.
Also, as I side note, I just read this on mushroom expert:
Quote:
The lawn mower's mushroom, in fact, may well be dangerous for toddlers, since it is known in some instances to contain small amounts of psilocybin. Chemical analysis has revealed this hallucinogen in some collections from some parts of North America. Elsewhere, the mushrooms appear to be inactive. But even where psilocybin does occur in the lawn mower's mushroom, it occurs in such small amounts that a thrill seeker would need to eat tons of them to be thrilled.
Not that it matters, but I thought it interesting. It may be common knowledge, but I didn't know!

I see purple too. Pan foe?
Could be. I'd say so if I'm reading the colors right. Maybe a mixed collection.
WILCOXX, your pics and spore print are good, but a darker, or more well lit print would tell more. And prints of more specimens.

WILCOXX, these are the same photos you posted here in another thread. The spore print definitelt looks purple/brown to me in this post.
"Well fertilized lawn" doesn't mean shit at the dog park. I doubt the prints are black or that you "ate some and got fried". 
At best you have a mixed collection.

Probably not true, they likely had a mixed collection.

Hopefully the next person to chemically analyse P. foenisecii, will first match it microscopically.
