[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 446007, member: 4012"] It's Nickel Silver, a common material used for making cheap cutlery and other such housewares before stainless steel became available. There's no actual silver involved, just the silver-coloured nickel/zinc/copper alloy. It's often used as just plating material on a brass object, usually labelled EPNS for "Electro-Plated Nickel Silver". [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_silver[/url] [/QUOTE]
