These are the standard dull grey pewter. It may just be your monitor settings that makes them look bronze. They look fairly pewterish (is that a word?) on my screen.
2. You list the standard pewter crest badges (polished or brushed), and then you offer a smaller (7/8") size. But what is the size of the standard ones? Obviously they're larger than 7/8", but what size are they exactly?
They are exactly the size of a typical crest badge, more or less. :-) I know, not the answer you are looking for, but I'm not in the shop now to take a precise measurement. The small pins (7/8") are about the size of a quarter, while the standard crest badge is a bit larger than a silver dollar, if that gives you any indication.
If you want precise measurements of the crest pin, you can call up the gift shop and someone will use a tape measure and get that info to you. Or email the museum and you should have any answer today or tomorrow.
