It's actually kind of hard to tell for sure what many of the Amazon
links are really made of. But this Aliexpress item at least explicitly
says copper wire and real gold plating.

I think brass would be a little better but maybe copper is strong enough.
Found some gold on brass half-hard. 26 and 24 awg. Much more gold than
necessary, and costs more, but it's available in a few days.
$16 for 5ft = 254 legs = $0.063/leg. Not that much better than the fancy
machined Mill-Max or Keystone ones.

There's others like that. Looks like the ones with varnish usually say
so somewhere, or they say "tarnish resistant".
