In the titles of some of David's psalms: Psalm 16; Psalm 56-60. Not "golden" as margin, but a "secret," conducting us into the depths of the divine life, "the secret of Jehovah" which is "with them that fear Him" (Psa_25:14); from Hebrew "katham" to conceal, Arabic katama. David delighted in enigmatical titles. Less pointedly Gesenius explains it "writing," miktab (Isa_38:9).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.
Michtam. (golden psalm). This word occurs in the titles of six psalms, Psa_16:1; Psa_56:1; Psa_57:1; Psa_58:1; Psa_59:1; Psa_60:1, all of which are ascribed to David.
The marginal reading of our Authorized Version is "a golden psalm," while, in the Geneva version, it is described as "a certain tune." From the position which it occupies in the title, we may infer that michtam is a term applied to these psalms, to denote their musical character, but beyond this everything is obscure.

Michtam
(Heb. miktam', מַכְתָּם, prob. for מַכְתָּבwritten; Sept. στηλογραφία, Vulg. tituli inscriptio), a term found in the titles of several psalms (16, 56, 57, 58, 60), and signifying a writing, i.e., a poem or song (see Gesenius, Thesaur. p. 724), like מַכְתָּב(miktab', writing, in Isa_38:9). Others (as Luther, after Aben-Ezra, Kimchi, and others) unaptly translate it golden, i.e., precious, distinguished, as if from כֶּתֶם gold. Still others (as Hezel, Ewald) refer to an Arabic root meaning to conceal, as if written from retirement, or in a plaintive strain; and some (after the rabbins) make it a compound of מָךְ וְתָם, i.q. humble and perfect, referring to David.
