Natalie,

A metallic gradient may go to (almost) white, especially if the adjacent part is made steeper, dragging the midpoints (the diamonds above the slider) closer (Illy speak).

Obviously, the appearance/colour of gold depends on the alloying, the light, and the surroundings, from greenish to reddish.

And equally obviously, the appearance in print must meet expectation rather than reality, for most people pure yellow or with a reddish (more copper) rather than a greenish (more silver) tinge.
