All 1994 US nickels were struck in the same alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper. Any 1994 nickel that's copper in color was almost certainly damaged by exposure to heat or chemicals, or was plated with that metal.
You can also check the coin's weight; it should be 5 grams. If it's very much different from that amount you should have it inspected in person by a dealer or knowledgeable collector.
