    I have seen iron turn a yellowish color after soaking in citric acid to remove rust.

    True, and Evaporust can turn them that color as well.

    After my stepsons father passed away, they were going through his things and found a Lyman rifle kit. With the kit was a mold that looked new and unused, he'd never even fired the rifle. The mold was the exact same color as the one in the first post on this thread. Not sure why some came colored that way.
