Further Web research suggests that nickel silver does not, in fact, contain any silver--it is typically an alloy of copper, nickel and zinc. It is called "nickel silver" because it often has a silver-like appearance. But not always--which is probably why the nickel silver of which my Lorée keys are made looks coppery bronze. The actual plating on the keys is, I believe, real silver.
