Has there been Gin-1 bladed Workers that were TiNi-coated by Spyderco?

I found one coated worker and want to know if it is coated by third party. When I closed/opened the blade it was clear that blade area under scales when knife is open was not coated. Othervise whole knife (not inside) looked to be coated (handle, clip..) - also the edge - no shining metal visible. Because of the coating over the edge blade was not sharp. Inside the handle there was no TiNi coat but material was clearly heat colorored (spring etc.) to light rainbow colors.

Price was cheap (65-70$) so I'd like to know soon.
 
From what I have heard, the knives are sold to another company and they coat them and sell them. I don't know if Spyderco ever coated any Workers. I have a black Worker in my collection.
