  1. Use 18 % nickelsilver, here
    http://www.ndt-ed.org/GeneralResources/MaterialProperties/ET/Conductivity_Misc.pdf

    18 percent is pretty standard. There is no silver in German Silver: Copper, Nickel, Zinc. The 18percent refers to the percent nickel. Polished, it looks like silver.

  2. I see 18% Nickel Alloy A (under pure silver) is listed as 2.874 x 10^-7

    Is this what I should use?
