What is the best 20-step or higher switch for TVCs, only made of either pure silver or heavy silver plated copper?

I am seeking for a switch where all the vital elements are either fully made of silver, or it is a heavy silver plated copper.

any other combinations, inc gold, iron, bronze, brass etc are excluded in this search.

Elna, Seiden, Shallco and similar are all disqualified as they also use materials not known for sonic excellence. Shallco is sonically inferior to Elna for example.

so far i have managed to find the following:
