Welcome to BAUT, Michael. You are sounding like a future
heliochromologist already!
There is a
poll regarding how others see the sun's color which you might enjoy. Please place your vote, too.
Here is a post that includes a picture of an unfiltered solar projection taken at the world's largest solar telescope: the McMath-Pierce at Kitt Peak. It sure looks white to me.
Serious Warning: The rods and cones within the eye are easily damaged by excessive direct sunlight. Using a solar projection via a pinholed sheet is the safest.
