Most adult sized bicycles these days have aluminium alloy handlebars, or even carbon fiber. Aluminium bars may be anodized, but will usually not be anodized. BMXes, Dutch bikes Townies and cruisers may have steel bars which usually are chromed.

If it's high quality, they would have had a copper layer first, to help the chrome stick to the bar.
