Two possilibities:

1. Try a galvanized nail. Galvanization is the process of coating with zinc, and 
so you'll have some zinc on the nail. Besides, iron will also create an 
electrical potential with copper!

2. Try a scientific supply company such as Edmund Scientific or Fisher. They 
sell through the web.
