    Older sheds will be white or whiter than hard antler.

    you will also notice on old sheds the bottom of the burr where it unattached, will sometimes be a greenish or dirty color, and just look dry. Your fresh ones will still be somewhat white, and if they are really fresh, will still have hints of blood, hair and a waxy ring around the edge that hasnt dried up. hope this helps and good luck finding some ;)
