In that scenario it could be because the human eye picks up color first and the brain registers it first. That's why road signs are different colors. Words are not as important as colors. So maybe you're right. It could be because our brains are inherently wired for color. The people that don't like color on their coins just prefer blast white so much that it overrides that hard-wiring at least where coins are concerned

HeHe, Poor Buggers.
I prefer my older Silver coins to be toned because on most occasions it means that the coin hasn't been dipped or at least not dipped that often.
Yet on modern Silver toned coins to me mean that they have been stored badly or worse they are AT and I prefer the blast white modern coins.
We are a fickle bunch us collectors
