In general, most harmonica covers are made of steel that has been plated, usually with nickel. Some have a painted coating (such as the Bushman Soul's Voice and the Hohner Pro-Harp and Cross Harp) instead of nickel to reduce irritation, and provide a smoother feel, and some (usually your cheaper ones) might be made of aluminum or plastic. Unfortunately, I don't know what your Johnson harmonica is made of.
