Hello Stredo, and welcome to the Coin Community forums! :) Unfortunately both versions (Ag and Cu-Ni) have the same size/diameter and the same weight. Judging from the description you posted, I'd say yours is the silver coin, as it looks like a proof piece to me. But I'm not sure, sorry ...

Hello Stredo, because I have both versions it is verry easy , the coin without the box and certificate is the nickel one,and the coins with the box are the silver ones.As I have both of them and put them one next to the other I can see the silver one is lighter then the nickel one.Hope this helps.
