I have one, and that is not magnetic at all. Looks pretty genuine as well, so? Are there some non steel issues as well?

According to my Dutch catalog (Suriname was a Dutch colony in our sinister history) and according to Krause, the alloy is cupro-nickel instead of steel-plated... which would make it non-magnetic.
