Why do some gold-tone badges look like different shades of gold?

All of our gold-tone badges are plated in the same shade of 24K gold. Any variation you see between product photos is due to lighting, camera settings, and reflections during photography — not a difference in the actual finish.

The true color of our 24K gold plating is rich and consistent across all badge models. Whether you’re viewing a badge with a smooth polished surface or one with detailed engraving, the gold finish is identical once produced.

Because photography can exaggerate highlights or shadows, we recommend choosing your badge based on the design and layout you prefer, rather than the apparent color tone in the image.
