Weathering steel attached to galvanized steel

Weathering steel attached to galvanized steel

(OP)
I am designing a security fence made of 3/8” thick weathering steel panels (ASTM A588) attached in direct contact with hot dip galvanized (ASTM  A123) columns (ASTM A36).  The Architect does not want bolts to be visible from the front side of the panels so I was thinking of installing fully threaded 302HQ stainless steel Nelson studs to the back side of the panels for attachment to the columns.  Is this an acceptable connection in terms of corrosion?
