The closest Valspar paint to Vista Paint Gates of Gold (0997) is Frankincense 3002-5C, a delta-E of 5.49 away — the closest Valspar has, and far enough away that you should sample it before committing.

Frankincense is 6 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as orange against orange, at chroma 38.7 and 39.3.

Codes are not transferable between manufacturers and no brand publishes a conversion table, so every figure here is measured from the published hex values rather than taken from a chart.
