Does the silver nose on a zuiko lens indicate it is older than a black nosed
one?
Does it make any difference?

Possible exceptions being :
- a valuable lens that is economically cleanable
- A lens that you need, but which cannot be easily obtained
- a lens with fungus on the outside of the outside of the front or rear
element, 
that can be wiped off with a microfibre cloth ( I bought one of these )
