An ultra super time consuming calibration process for the scanner was carried out and the trailer scan was also compared back side by side with the original 35mm viewed under theatrical presentation-like D56 lighting. A few additional color calibration tweaks were made to individual scenes.
This should easily be the most color accurate and theatrical projected look version out there (at least to my 35mm copy of the trailer).
And yes, the grass on the hill at the start is quite golden and olive tinted and the grass/foliage in other scenes does trend yellow/orange/olive that is what the original 35mm trailer colors were like (at least on my copy of the 35mm trailer, but it seems like on others as well).

A link to The Phantom Menace Trailer 'B' (Main Trailer) in UHD REC2100 PQ with Dolby Analog 2.0 (probably it is matrixed for simple surround?) and Cinema DTS 5.1 audio tracks:

Often TV sets tend to be more accurately calibrated in their regular SDR standard gamut REC709 modes than in their HDR Wide Gamut modes so the colors/saturation might look a touch more accurate for you with this version depending upon your set and its calibration, it might clip a few colors though but I'm not sure this trailer has all that much wide gamut content so might not make too much difference for this. Compression might be slightly worse on this one.)
