There hasn't been a silver Chorus group for a long time. If you want silver and new your choices are Potenza or Athena (if you can find it). But that also means a 4 arm crank if it's Potenza.

There's a new Potenza group on eBay right now.

New Centaur has a silver option.

O.P. can correct me but Chorus silver alloy cranks (10 speed, by definition) were not produced in either 52/36 or 50/34. Silver Centaur 10 speed was made in 50/34 but are almost impossible to find in NOS these days.

that is correct.

Centaur 10 speed silver are hard to find (they are also different looking that chorus 10, chorus 10 is the old style cranks, square taper).

Also athena 11 silver (which works fine with 10 speed) but also very hard to find, specially in UT

10-S or 11-S?
Crankarm length?

This NEW 2018 Campagnolo CENTAUR SILVER Group 11 speed option provides a choice of 172mm x 50/34 or 172mm x 52/36.

Tony Tom at A Bicycle Odyssey has just taken in from a customer a pristine Della Santa (EL). It's got an equally pristine 9-speed Chorus group on it. Crankset, of course, won't be compact (mid or otherwise). Didn't discuss it with him, but I expect he'd be happy to sell the group separately.
