copper-nickel
Corrosion-resistant metal blend
Copper-nickel is an alloy of copper and nickel, valued for its corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments.
It's used in coins, ship hulls, and plumbing.
Many "silver" coins are actually copper-nickel: The quarter in your pocket is copper-nickel, not silver.
Also called cupronickel.
