Hi Grace, most likely it is plated, probably with zinc as 1,000s are made in chemistry classes every year. When I teach chem, it is a fun...
But we couldn't do that or we would be as bad as the others ~ right :)
The nice thing is it will still be that way 10 years from now. I am sure most have a box of ?? cents waiting for better equipment or knowledge,...
I have no doubt it is a transient spike, but no one knows how long (2-3 days) or (1-2years), although I suspect a few weeks. Make money on...
