It is nickel I am afraid the fifty per cent silver is much larger and carries a different design.

Pacificoin is right.
That is the Nickel Proof-like Dollar issued in 1971.
The 50% Silver Dollar has the British Columbia Coat of Arms on the reverse and is 36.06 mm.

Here is a 1971 Silver dollar in original case. These dollars are
usually toned as a result of the raw coin contacting the packaging.

Nope. That is the nickel Specimen strike dollar, issued in 1971.
