Classic Silver vs Half Moon Crest
Where Classic Silver belongs to Behr's range, Half Moon Crest is a Benjamin Moore color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Half Moon Crest (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Classic Silver (LRV 48), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Classic Silver runs yellow while Half Moon Crest is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.0, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
