Yes, pre-1964 nickels, specifically the ones minted from 1942 to 1945, contain silver. During World War II, the U.S. Mint produced these "War Nickels" with a composition of 56% copper, 35% silver, and 9% manganese to conserve nickel for the war effort. However, nickels minted before 1942 and after 1945 do not contain silver and are made of a copper-nickel alloy.

In unworn condition, 6.25 gm. Current copper-nickel quarters weigh 5.67 gm.
None. Please don't assume that all pre-1965 coins contained silver. Except during WWII, US nickels never contained silver - they've always been 75% copper alloyed with 25% nickel. From 1942 to 1945 special "war nickels" were made that contained about a gram of silver, because nickel was needed for the war effort. A 1964 U.S. nickel contains 0% silver. Only nickels issued from 1942 thru 1945 (known collectively as 'war nickels' and distinguished by their large mint marks, hovering over Monticello on the reverse) contained any silver, 35% by weight.
