EPCA is silver-plated nickel silver. Nickel Silver is a copper alloy (CA) mainly that is mixed in varied amounts of nickel and zinc. The higher the nickel content, the higher the quality of the nickel silver. Nickel Silver is also referred to as German Silver, Paktong, or Alpaca Silver (Mexican Surname). Nickel Silver is a highly stable and robust alloy composed of mixed metals with the formulation of 60% copper, 20% nickel and 20% zinc but does vary to some degree based on the manufacturing unit.
