This is a short history lesson but it answers the question:

The golden retriever breed started out with Lord Tweedmouth cross-breeding a Tweed Water Spaniel (now extinct) and a blackwavy-coated retriever. The litter produced all black puppies except for one golden puppy. This puppy would become the base for all golden retrievers.

So... the first golden retriever was gold and all goldens have been since.
