Answer:

Your answer is gold

Step-by-step explanation:

The Dome of the Rock wasn't always golden. The golden plated tile was added in 1959–61 by the Jordanians during its restoration. King Hussein held a fire sale of one of his villas in London and anted up the $6.5 million to coat the Dome in gold. Hope this helped :)
