Hi,

I have a few of these plugs, and the treasure hunter in me is hoping for solid silver.

Has any seen these before, and are aware of the metal content here?

Tin plated copper lugs. Seems bunches of them, always tin plated. Break the housing with a hammer and you have #2 copper.

If it's grey/silver all the way through its probably nickel. But yes they're generally nickel silver or tin on copper or brass.
