Ironman verdict
Gold headband is a members item. Other players trade it, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade, so you get your own. We list 1 other source for it.
It does not drop from monsters and no shop stocks it. It comes from medium clue scrolls. It is on the medium clue scroll reward table, so every medium clue you complete is a chance at it.
It is worn in the head slot, with no positive combat bonuses.
No recipe in our data uses it as a material. High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 24 coins. Each cast uses a nature rune, 180 coins from a rune shop, and five fire runes that a fire staff replaces, so an alch loses about 156 coins; only alch it to clear space.
