SILVER, not "sliver", and in any case all 1959 nickels are made of an alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel. 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.
At present, it's worth about $2.25.
