PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 03/30/2021 5:01 pm Yes - we need photos. The most likely answer is that it has been silver plated at some time - I remember doing this as an experiment myself as a youngster. It is just possible it is an off metal strike, which would make it much more interesting, but we can't tell without pictures. Report this Post to the Staff
