Could this coin contain gold?

I have this 1557 Hungarian denar which is a yellow color instead of a copper/silver color. Could it contain gold?

Depends.

Most gold does not pit, corrode or tone like on your coin and so I'd say it would be unlikely. But weigh your coin, gold is very heavy.

I know very little about medieval Hungarian coins so I can't help you on that end.
