I cannot tell by the pictures but are the eggs solid gold-colored throughout or are they more transparent with something dark inside making the eggs look golden? I ask because, although the tomato fruitworm egg is kind of whitish when first laid, it can appear more golden close to hatch time. Here is a photo of what I am trying to describe: http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG...
On this page, they describe how the egg develops a reddish brownish look: http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG...
