Almost Bliss

Well, I aquired some supposed Acapulco Gold yesterday from my dealer of many years. My friends talked to him to set up a meeting place and such and I went to meet the guy to pick it up. I didn't look at it right away becuase we were in the middle of a fairly busy parking lot and hes a fairly trustworthy fellow. I finally got behind the store and unrolled the bag, and I was pretty surprised at what I saw. He didnt say anything to me about it being Acapulco Gold and when I first saw it I had no idea what the hell was going on. It was like a bud with a ton of Golden (hay-color) bud on the outside. At first I thought it was cured wrong, but when I looked closely at the gold part it smelled REALLY strong but didnt look like bud normally looks. I got to my friends house and thats when he informed me it was supposedly Acapulco Gold. My question is whether or not it truly is the legendary strain of Cannabis, and if it isnt, what the hell is it? I have un pic for you....(It's definitly not just dried out, still moist and such, just golden in color)
