Nope. It's not a Copper plated Zinc Planchet. It's a Copper Planchet, since it weights 3.1 grams. Copper plated Zinc Planchets only weighs 2.5 grams.

It's a large date copper.

Copper ~ 3.1g
Copper plated Zinc ~ 2.5g

The 2 in the date is the best way to tell if it is a large date or a small date.
