These can be distinguished from the cupronickel version by the colour - silver is a much whiter metal than cupronickel.

Platinum, Gold and Silver proofs are generally issued in a presentation case with the coins in protective capsules. Cupronickel proofs are generally only available in the year sets, but of course there is nothing to stop someone removing them from the case.
Circulation coins from Royal Mint Year Sets are generally not only in better condition than issued coins, but are slightly better struck. It is hard to distinguish them out of the folder except that there is a lack of any contact marks, and sometimes they are a bit shinier.
