Made of gold or having the appearance and qualities of gold.
From 'gold' + suffix '-in' (variant of '-ine'). This suffix creates adjectives like 'crystallin' (from crystal), though 'golden' is the more standard modern form in English.
Older English texts used '-in' and '-ine' endings interchangeably for color and material adjectives, which is why poets like Shakespeare used both 'golden' and 'goldin'—language was still standardizing during the Renaissance.
