Gold Girl was a liquid metal robot, with almost limitless shape shifting abilities, made of gold.
History
She was designed by Dr. William Magnus, a brilliant robotics expert.
She was created along with the other Metal Women as the Metal Men wished that they had girlfriends. Tina (Platinum Girl) also believed a boyfriend might lessen her affections for Doc Magnus. Doc Magnus created opposite-sex duplicates of the Metal Men but they were more independent than the Metal Men had hoped; the Metal Women didn't want to be slavishly devoted to their male counterparts.
The Metal Women, along with Nameless, showed they were just as good as the originals by smashing a runaway robot tank. The tank was the forerunner of invading Robot Amazons, who created a cute, girl robot who was an alloy of all the Metal Men's metals. The robot girl lured the Metal Men into a trap and the Metal Women had to rescue them. They defeated the Amazon Robots, but a lava vein opened and the Metal Women sacrificed themselves to save the Metal Men.

Notes
- Although this character was originally introduced during DC's Earth-One era of publication, their existence following the events of the 1985–86 limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths remains intact. However, some elements of the character's Pre-Crisis history may have been altered or removed for Post-Crisis New Earth continuity, and should be considered apocryphal.
