It should be. Try topping it up and see what happens. If you've
registered it, you can check the balance on the TfL web site.

I've got Oyster cards older than that including my main one.

So it has a value equal to the deposit originally paid. I think the was £3
in those days.

That's OK

the card itself is valid indefinitely (that's until they implement cards
with the next generation chips and depreciate all the old cards, but that's
years away)

It is only the balance that is, theoretically unusable. The T&Cs say after
2 years of non use, but anecdotal evidence shows that it is longer than
that.
