as opposed to what?
Its not Solid Brass if Magnetic
After the magnet test, scratch an area that doesn't show.. If you see a shiny yellow scratch, the item is likely solid brass. If you see a silvery scratch, or a deffinite color of anything else, it's not solid brass.
Well if it ain't Brass, IE Brass plated a magnet won't stick to it.
Sorry a magnet will probably stick to it.
