The Unexpected Drastic Colour Change (Another 'What colour is this horse?' thread)

So I used to have a Dun/Buckskin horse (I hadn't quite figured out which yet), but the recent onset of shedding season had revealed an interesting and unexpected change...

She's a 6 year old grade (QH maybe?) and she's always been a light (but rich) gold colour, with dapples. As you can see, she's quite dark now (I wish I had some before photos, to highlight the change!).

What would you call this colour? Is it common for horses to change colour so drastically at her age?

This Jets sire mojo like 4 years ago when he was 2 I don't have any recent pics but that year he got really dark. I'm told he's been a pretty chocolate golden color lately. I wish I had a picture of him as a yearling he was the most gorgeous bright golden color.

Around when he was first born.
