Default Question about ngk tr55 sparkplugs

I bought another set of ngk tr55 since the last ones have about 10k and I already had the old ones out from doing the head and cam swap. Anyway my question is 5 of the plugs I got are a goldish color on the threads and where the socket goes. The other 3 are silver. The plugs have the same part numbers on the boxes and the same on the plugs themselves. Can anyone tell me what is up with that?

Here is the pic. Everything seems to be the same except the color. The thread count, length ect are same as the gold plug.

They ran out of the blinging silver threads, so they decided to use crap gold.
