Im not disrespecting your auction or you for the best info on coins use the Numista site this coin is Copper-nickel. Coinquest.com is confusing and lacks detail. http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces685.mobile.html#lien_infos_techniques
I don't know much about the coins my grandfather left me, so I looked them up on the web and that is where I got the information. Thank you for the information.
Apparently I was wrong about this coin as being silver. One of the Listia'r did some more digging on this coin and his findings state that it is NOT SILVER. Please refer to the comment above from "Jewelry925AndMore. I'm sorry, I did not try in any way to mislead anyone about this coin. Sincerely, Balinda
