New photos of the rumored gold iPhone 5S have been published by the French site MacBoutic (via iPhon.fr). Similar images have appeared before and KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who has offered accurate information on Apple's upcoming product plans numerous times, said yesterday the 5S would be available in gold.

Several days ago, BGR shared different images suggesting the color will be more subtle, calling it 'Champagne' and providing its own images of the volume and mute switches. Japanese blog Mac Otakarareported separately earlier this week that the iPhone 5S would have a gold option.

Oddly, MacBoutic claims they "deliberately blurred the "Apple" logo and the words "iPhone" on the back of the chassis", though there are no traces in the image of such blurring. It's possible that this is a preproduction sample and that sort of lettering was missing entirely, or possibly a knockoff part not manufactured for Apple.
