The English meaning of the Latin word 'aurum' is gold. The word may refer to the element or metal; or to something that's made of gold or gold plate. For example, it may refer to coins and money that are made of gold. And it may refer to the glittering color of gold. But what it doesn't refer to is the earlier, ancient, classical Greek word, which is 'chrysion'.
