First, of the choices you gave, I personally prefer: Blue-ace-coin - 
Color/Value/Item ... I think it seems to flow better when used inside 
of a sentence used for piecepack rules.  I don't usually use hyphens 
though.

On more complex games, I usually have a Terms/Concepts section right 
after the setup.  I feel this allows me to do two things: (1)
Introduce/Define/Explain terms and mechanics used in the game -- in 
order to prepare the player for them being mentioned and more fully 
explained later on in the rules, and (2)Marry off the abstract 
piecepack bits to the theme.  An example of #2 would be something 
like, "The Blue Arms coins represent a kindom's armed forces, and 
will be referred to as 'Armies'."
