What variety of tall bearded iris?

Auburn, CA

Here's another beauty that came with our property. I'd love to know what it is.

What I know:
Was planted sometime between 1982 and 2006. I'm guessing from the rhizome clump that it was most likely between 2000-2004.
Blooming now in zone 8A.
Has multiple blooms on one stalk.
Over 36 inches tall.

I'd be happy to give any other information if anyone has specific questions to help in identification.

Great orange color, it reminds me of Cinderella's Coach, but I think CC has darker beards

Could it be Gold Galore? It doesn't list white under the colors but two of the pictures show a similar fading under the beard.

Maybe the film, but gold galore is a yellowy yellow rather than gold-yellow. Weird description--mine.

A L'Orange? http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/139254/

Does anyone think it could be Rave On? That's the best match I've found so far in comparing photos.

The only one I grow that looks at all close is Millennium Sunrise. I would call mine Apricot, but as you can see in the plantfiles, the colors varies.
