Say gold piece (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

element

I believe this is a double definition.

'say gold' is the first definition.
(I know that Au is a type of element)

'piece' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for element that I've seen before include "Iron, for instance - part of an electric kettle" , "Chemical building block" , "He, say" , "Wire in electric fire" , "Constituent of universe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Telegraph.
