I am quite sure that before this part was split into an a and a b part, metallic
gold was a known color for the original 4595 catalog item.

Now pearl gold is known for both variants, but not metallic gold.

I have the "right handed" version in pearl gold and also in what i am rather
convinced is metallic gold. The difference is subtle, but the metallic gold part
seems to have a slightly textured surface, whereas the pearl gold version is
completly smooth. Also the metallic gold version is a tiny bit darker.

Am i wrong here ?

Kind regards

Mikael / MikMo
