Satisfactory after turning up gold chesspiece (4)
I believe the answer is:
rook
'chesspiece' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'satisfactory after turning up gold' is the wordplay.
'satisfactory' becomes 'ok' ('ok' can be similar in meaning to 'satisfactory').
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'turning up' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'gold' becomes 'or' ('or' is the heraldic name for gold).
'or' reversed gives 'ro'.
'ok' after 'ro' is 'ROOK'.
(Other definitions for rook that I've seen before include "Poignant, evocative" , "Gregarious crow" , "Chesspiece otherwise known as a castle" , "Do < cornerpiece" , "Fleece - bird" .)
