That's exactly what I was thinking. Maybe just stained or something.

Yes, the radio you have is a Cobra 29 LTD Classic with a gold faceplate. The date code "rDE220" indicates that it was manufactured in October 1989. The serial number "A90022020" is also consistent with a Cobra 29 LTD Classic.

Maybe it's a regular Cobra 29 Classic which was owned by a heavy smoker? :)
