Discover It Garnet design question

thelethargicage — Fri, 22 May 2015 15:24:52 GMT

What color is the "O" in "Discover" on the front of the card? Is it silver or orange? I googled it and I found pictures that show the "O" in each color, but what color is the "O" on an actual physical card?

Silver

If I remember correctly, only the default bluish design has the textured orange 'o'. The other colors of the default design are all silver.

Damn those clueless Discover CSRs! What's the point of being obnoxiously friendly if they don't know what the hell they're talking about!

It is...with the orange "O". With the silver "O" it looks like crap.

It has the silver O but it still has the Orange it part, which the garnet doesn't have.

My Discover it Spruce card just came in the other day. It's a nice looking card, but I'm already thinking about getting the Garnet design also. In the next month or so, I think I'm going to request the Garnet design with the EMV chip.

It's not their fault Discover's material is inconsistient. On the website, it shows the purple card with an orange "o" and a purple "it" - the real card is the opposite.

When I received my updated Garnet card with EMV two months ago, it came with the *Orange O* while every letter is silver (including IT), however there is an orange background behind the IT.

Looking at it right now and it does look pretty nice being orange
