The Edgware models keys were all as far as I recall made of nickelsilver. Only the Regents of that period had pot metal keys.
However a good check is to look at underside of the keys, which often had numbers stamped or embossed on them.

If the numbers are raised above the surface it's pot metal.
If they are impressed into the metal, or no numbers exist, then it should be nickle silver.
