Chrome gold, metallic gold, or some other color....
I have no clue

(And it came with a batch i bought from a son of a collector witch included 2pce
genuine sw0218 the son didn't know abbout).
(So it was already a special batch of bricks)

If you are unsure how to determine between Chrome Gold, Metallic Gold and Pearl
Gold, I would suggest that quadruple check this minifig to be sure that it is
Chrome Black. Sometimes new black as a sheen that pops and there are regular
Star Wars torso that are very similar to the this fig as well.

Because if you spray paint something, it looks better if you give multiple very
thin coats from a variety of angles than just one from above.

The lower one in your picture looks like it has been scuffed on the top surface.

I don't know why people do things. But the plates you pictured have little
beads as of paint on them which is something that unaltered Lego bricks just
wouldn't have.

It's really difficult to tell from the picture that you provided and the
lighting. From the available colors list, only Pearly Gold is known to exist,
so my guess is either this or its repainted.

There are several flat Dark gold plates here on BL...
Based on the pictures provides items on sale in that color... It seems to be
flat Dark gold...
(They all look spray painted)

Thanks for your help!

Those are just a darker shade of pearl gold.
