Doubt it, scrape a blade through a few slits in the rim see if you see copper...just may be worn and dirty.

It certainly looks copper clad from the edge pics.

Don't scrape it on the 1 in a billion chance it's silver why on earth would you intentionally damage it.

Weigh won't damage it, and will be conclusive

KM-164 Silver (.900) - 6.25 g - ø 24.26 mm
KM-164a Copper-nickel clad Copper - 5.67 g - ø 24.26 mm
