Sufficiently thin metal can lack enough depth to be opaque to visible light. You see this with various deposited metal screen on glass. Also, gold thin enough to be almost transparent still looks gold in color when seen with its reflected light, but it looks blue when seen with its transmitted light, because it preferentially reflects or absorbs redder colors.
