Contrast Filters

I am interested in the "contrast" filters I hear about here and other forums. The Celestron version seems to be the cheapest in the 1.25" versions, around 40.00. Anacortes lists a Baader 2" for 55.00 that is listed as a "Moon" filter that alsp increases contrast on Jupiter and Mars. Would this be the same or a similiar filter. The pic shows it with a blue tint, I thought they were supposed to be yellowish?
