Something interesting about metal colors that I hadn't thought about until I learned it in a graphics class is that metals shimmer in their own color. Most other glossy materials only shimmer in white. For gray metals it doesn't really matter, but it makes a big difference between gold and orange yellow.
(Edit: I incorrectly said all instead of most other materials.)
