One of my crew brought me a box of these this weekend- could anyone guess what the alloy might be?

I really cant tell you the Alloy type, but I sure hope it's the same as the Type metal, because I been melting it with the rest of the Lino.....Seems to be the same by feel and bending, if thats a good test.... I have a bunch of it in my type metal box....PJ

The spaces are generally a harder alloy than letters.
