I never heard of a "Golden Boy". The original 1860 Henry had a brass frame, and was sometimes called the Yellow Boy, but the original Henry and the later M1866 Wichester were both chambered in .44 rimfire only. The first guns chambered in .44-40 (44WCF) were the M1873 Winchesters. Sometime later, Colt chambered their M1873 single action in .44WCF, and called it the Frontier model.
