High silver content (30 percent, by weight, or greater) gold base alloys are found to have exceptional resistance to silver sulfide tarnish when alloyed with from 0.25 to 10 percent, by weight, indium or preferably indium and cadmium each within the range of 0.25 to 10 percent and such alloys including those containing cadmium alone have been found to exhibit exceptional resistance to carbon film deposits in normal low energy switch applications and frictional polymer formation in sliding low energy applications.
