Not quite sure what you mean exactly. To know if it's cold hardy or not, you would have to identify what species it is first. But even if you know the species, there would actually be some differences regarding the actual hardiness depending on where the bulbs/seeds originate from. If you for instance planted wild collected bulbs (which you of course shouldn't do, but if you hypothetically did) then the hardiness would be rather questionable as they become much better adopted to garden condition after a few generations of seed sowing.
I'd however assume any cyclamen that is sold unlabelled to be a florist Cyclamen, Cyclamen persicum. The smallest of these have better hardiness than the larger ones and they can take some frost temporarily, but they would unfortunately need an exceptionally mild winter to get through winter outside in a colder area.
