At this point I asked the Bored to pull the below thread.
The fact is with the testing I did it can only confirm the presence of Nickel which there is without a doubt but I cannot discern whether it is the final plating or that there is a very thin Rhodium flash with a high level of porosity that is allowing the HCL to react with the Nickel sub-plate. If it is the latter then Kevin’s final explanation would hold true and could certainly be a possibility for the results of my testing.
Certainly there are many highend audio connectors that are direct Rhodium plate over copper as Nickel tends to be avoided. Differing from direct gold over copper which is a diffusion issue of the copper atom into the gold, copper will eventually contaminate the Rhodium plating bath so it becomes a much more expensive proposition.
With that in mind I feel it is irresponsible to leave the below post up without the ability to confirm that 100% and I apologize to Kevin.
