Could such a thing had existed?

I´m not talking about abundance of kinatah but a keris made of the esteemed metal itself. Yes, it could not had been Wesi Aji but alike there are the dapurs that fall outside the perimeter of "normal" why would such a anomaly not had existed and if, we need pics, please

To get back formal again - I do ask in earnest: are there reasons why gold could not had been used for the purpose of creating ceremonial kerises back in the day, say around 1600-1700?

Thanks,

J.
