Thanks guys..
David,
Yours is definitely NOS but it must be a "cost reduced" Chrysler part.
At least from the picture, it looks like it is plastic on the exposed part.
Mine is Mk I and has an aluminum(?) cover over clear plastic.
BUT, looking through the clear plastic to the underside of the aluminum,
it does look black, and there is black paint on the ends and inside ends
of the clear plastic. On the outside in the back edge is where it does
looks faded brown...
Inside molded in is the manufacturer:
SPARTO Ref. No. 5911
It looks like the Alpine guys have been pondering this too:

My NOS map light cover is satin black in color. I believe the
brownish, gold, silver are just various shades of faded color. See photo
links.
