I'm reading Haythornwaite's 'British Rifleman' 1797-1815 (Osprey Warrior, 2002). The Shako Badge is illustrated but it's 'color' is not stated. It is drawn in/as a light silver color. Is this the correct color? Thanks in advance for any assistance! Regards, J. P. Kelly

White metal (pewter) for the men and silver for the officers.
