Much more likely to be baldy than golden, but... could you see any white on
the underwings? Immature baldy would show some white on the inner part of
the wings. (Immature golden, for reference shows a white patch on the outer
end of the wings, at the base of the primaries.) Of course, seeing it can
be dependant on the lighting. Head size is also a distingushing feature;
baldies have huge heads in comparison to goldens. This is pretty
simplified, but I don't have time for more now. Hope it helps...
