ID Request: Possible Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata

I found these mushrooms after a strong rain storm and they were pretty soaked the day of. They have dried a little and I've tried to mark the photos that were from when they were very wet.
I'm mostly worried about dangerous look-a-likes, so if anyone has others they they think this might be please let me know.
Habitat: Where does it grow? - In the woods, Pennsylvania, Montgomery County, Altitude ~600ft - Cold spring day. - Growing in old mulch, on the side of a mulch trail, among weeds. Mostly deciduous forest area. I couldn't ID any nearby trees. Mushrooms were greater than 50 ft from nearest tree.

Gills: - Gills are rusty brown with slight blue-ish coloring around the edges. slight purple tint. - I think gills are attached. They look adnate attached to me, but many of the mushrooms are past-prime and gills are not attached.
(when they were more wet)


Spore print looks dark purple to black.

Stem: - Longest stems I found were about 6cm long. - Largest about 10mm wide - White-ish, yellow, patches of brown. - Minor purple/blue at base of stem. - Turns translucent yellow when bruised. - no sign of ring, or viel. - Hollow - stringy, pulls apart easily.

Cap: - Largest about 6cm wide. - Translucent Yellow/brown when wet. - White to yellow/orange when dry. - Conical - convex - Small orange/brown umbo (I think, I'm new at this)

Spore print color: Dark purple to black (see photo above)
Bruising: - Some very minor blue/purple/black bruising in the cap. - stem bruises yellow or not at all when dry.

Other information:
I think its possible that this is Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata but I want to be certain.
I found these mushrooms in the exact spot that we found some Psilocybe 2 years ago. We were pretty sure that they were ovoideocystidiata. We did testing later and confirmed that they were at the very least some form of Psilocybe.

I posted an ID request for some that look very similar to these shrooms! I think they could be ovoids. Could you have a look?
