Last silver coin
Are there any currently issued and circulating silver coins anywhere in the world? I'm not considering proofs and made for collectors round things as a coin. To qualify, the coin must be marked with a denomination and available for that face value at banks for the purpose of spending in stores. If there are none, what was the last? The US got out of that business mostly in 1964 but qualified (with a footnote) until 1970 with the halves. When did the world give up on .925/.900 silver coins?

Currently we have a number of countries with 2 Euro coins. What is the largest current denomination circulating at face value coin still being made?
