No. There is only the 'golden top' which is Psylicibon Cubensis. Also called 'cubies'. 'silver top' is either a crock of shit or a non hallucigenic mushroom.

Here are the English Language Common Nicknames for the magic shrooms excerpted from my online book, :Teonan?catl: Ancient and Contemporary Shamanic Mushroom Names of Mesoamerica and Other Regions of the World." At:
http://mjshroomer.yage.net/names.html/
TABLE III:
ENGLISH LANGUAGE EPITHETS
Psilocybe cubensis (gold caps, golden tops, cubes, purple rings).
Psilocybe semilanceata (liberty caps, liberty bells, pixie caps, blue legs).
Psilocybe stuntzii (blue ringers, Washington blue veils, Stuntzii's blue legs).
Psilocybe pelliculosa (elves caps, elves stools, woodland caps).
Psilocybe cyanescens (red saucers).
Psilocybe baeocystis (blue bells, blue fuckers).
Panaeolus subbalteatus (red caps, subs).
Copelandia spp. (blue meanies, cone heads, gold caps, dimple tops, witch's tits).

And as noted above. There are no silver caps.
I should mention that in the Wasson Book Soma: Divine Mushroom of Immortality, The Amanita muscaria is silver in the moon light and there are pictures showing this but no one ever called that one siolver cap eitlher.
And Panaeolus antillarum tends to liik silvery in age.

Have a shroomy day and may all of your days be shroomy.
