This question cannot be answered as written.

If you mean the physical bomb itself it was painted in a typical army color, but I don't recall seeing any photos or documents that would show the actual bomb used (they would still be classified unless touched up to obliterate certain external detail). Most likely a khaki. I have seen casings in museums painted khaki, brown, black, camo, and white.

If you mean the explosion that cannot be described as a color, it was blinding light covering the entire spectrum IR, visible, UVA, UVB, and soft x-rays. Similar to a black body spectrum for an object at a temperature of a few million degrees.

If you mean the mushroom cloud, that was a muddy brown/black with flickers of red and orange "flame" and enveloped in a multicolored ionization halo glow.
