    it has a copper core, and the coating is very shinny. also it doesn't stick to a magnet

    There is aluminum coated, tin coated, and silver coated wire. The tin and aluminum would go for #2 copper at the scrap yard. I don't know about the silver coated as I have never came across any. It is not that much more expensive in the store I believe. Silver coated seems to be used for crafts and electronics, so the gauge would generally be small.That is the extent of my knowledge.Hope I helped a little.

    this wire is mainly from computers it appears to be aluminum wire. and strips very easy. also its the heavier gauge wire .
