It depends on the coin's composition. As of 03/2014 approximate retail values are

Nickel composition (silver-coloured, sticks to a magnet):

Moderate wear: 18¢

Slight wear: $1.00

Almost no wear: $5.00

Uncirculated: $15 or more

Tombac composition (brass-coloured, does not stick to a magnet):

Moderate wear: 15¢

Slight wear: $1.00

Almost no wear: $4.00

Uncirculated: $8 or more

There were two types of nickel minted that year, each with two varieties. The common versions are worth between 25 cents and 3 dollars depending on condition. The rare versions are worth several hundred dollars at minimum.

The 1962 Canadian Nickels were made from 99.9% pure nickel, according to the Canadian Mint's own website. Below are the complete specs of the 1955-1981 series Canadian Nickels from said site.

1955 to 1981

Composition: 99.9% nickel

Weight (g): 4.54

Diameter (mm): 21.21

Thickness (mm): 1.7

As for what they are worth, the truest answer is, it depends. The factors are many, and include the condition of the coin, the rarity of the coin in the series, the collector demand, and so forth.

If that sentence fragment is asking about the coin's value, it's currently worth about 7 cents for the metal content.

Silver dollars containing .5997 troy oz of silver were issued by the RCM from 1935 to 1967. A 1962 Canadian silver dollar would be in this category and would be of the Voyageur type.

It's still worth five cents, or maybe a little more if the value of nickel (the metal) goes back up.
