| NICKLE SILVER | |||||||||
|
|||||||||
| "Nickel silver" is very resistant to corrosion, and is extremely durable. In times past, "nickel" or "German" silver was comprised of around 90% silver. Since it did not meet the government requirement of 92.5% pure silver content, it could not legally or by definition be called "sterling" silver. In fact, the "nickel" or "German" silver of today consists of a nickel alloy which is 60 parts copper, 20 parts zinc, and 20 parts nickel. | |||||||||
