"Gold ring" implies that the ring is made of gold whereas, "golden ring" could imply the color of the ring and not the material depending on the context and conversation. :)

So if you were to say
"I have a gold ring"
you would be implying that your ring is made of gold.
But if you went to a jeweler or someplace else and asked for a gold ring you'd have the option of gold plating or solid gold.
If you said
" I have a golden ring."
that could also give the impression of both material and color.
If you went to the same place and asked for a golden ring you would essentially get the same options.
So it really depends on how you use them and where.
