The rate of Golden Pearls is - according to Thottbot - just 1:200 (0.5%) , meaning that of 20 pearls 1 pearl might be golden.

It might work out that way. I think it is actually, a chance for a pearl, then a roll to see which type. More like a 1:10 chance to get a pearl, and if it is, then a 1:20 chance for it to be golden, or some such calculation.
