Best Answer

No. He translated them from ancient golden plates containing the records of the ancient people of America who were faithful in Christ.

The translation is said to have been done through use of the Urim and Thummim, a device described in the Old Testament. It involved some sort of breastplate and two 'seer stones', but no hat.
