I am pretty sure that 'German silver' ,'Nickle silver',and white brass are all the same thing,and none have any silver in them,heres the breakdown I have:
60% Copper 20% Nickle 20% Zinc |

 And i also think Justin is correct when he states that there isn't really any silver in what is referred to as German Silver. |
