I would say its probably not, more than likely its pyrite. But the matrix it is in is correct so get it tested.

Its cool either way...stick it your collerction. I vote gold...why not?

Does the color shine at you in the shade. Gold still retains a luster in the shade, while fools gold only reflects light and goes dull in the shade. That's always my first test, and if is still shines in the shade I start getting excited.
