I'm just guessing here. But i read on the coloured gold page of P3M Refining that an alloy of 79 per cent gold and aluminum has a purple color. So maybe your hand came in contact with aluminum.

What could be causing a green mark on ths inside of my ring finger I am wearing an 18Kt white gold engagement ring?

You may want to have that ring checked by a reputable jeweler. It sounds like you have a copper ring plated in white gold and the plating has worn off the underside and is oxidizing from the moisture on your finger. White gold is Regular gold mixed with a white metal like nickel to change its color.

Why would a white gold engagement ring turn your finger brownish-orange?

The discoloration could be caused by a reaction between the natural oils in your skin and the alloys used in the white gold.

If you wear a platinum wedding ring and a white gold engagement ring will they go different colours over time?

Yes, they will. White gold is not naturally white like platinum--it is alloyed with other metals and plated with rhodium to give it it's white appearance. The plating on a white gold ring will eventually wear away, and you will need to re-plate your ring to restore it's white appearance, or else it will start to take on a yellowish tint.You should also know that a platinum ring will accelerate the wear on a white gold ring because platinum is a stronger and more durable metal than white gold. The platinum ring will constantly be rubbing up against the white gold ring if they are both worn on the same finger (which is the traditional way of wearing the rings), and this friction will wear away at the plating of the white gold ring.For these reasons, it's preferable to get matching metals for your engagement ring and wedding band.
