One who is more golden; something that is more golden in quality or appearance compared to something else.
From 'golden' (adjective) + '-er' (Old English '-ra' comparative suffix). The comparative form suggests a gradient of the golden quality.
'-Er' comparatives show English's ancient Germanic roots—'golder' is technically grammatical but archaic, since we'd usually say 'more golden' in modern English!
