An alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper. That's the same metal as all other dates for nickels except the famous "war nickels" from 1942-45.

How much silver is in a nickel made in 1977?

None. 1977 US nickels are made of copper and nickel. In fact, all U.S. nickels made from 1866 to mid-1942 and from 1946 to the present are all made from that same alloy. From mid-1942 to 1945 nickels did contain a small amount of silver because nickel metal was needed for the war effort. Those "war nickels" are the ONLY ones that have any silver in them.
