<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1561377, member: 66&quot;]I think a better way to phase it would be &quot;What was the last country to issue silver coins intended to circulate as money.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>The US puts out a business strike quality ASE but they don&#039;t intend for it to circulate as money.&nbsp; Canada recently issued a $20 face value silver coin ofr $20 and the face value is greater than the intrinsic value so it could in theory circulate, but the mintage was restricted and it has a collector value significantly greater than it&#039;s face value.&nbsp; It is also not intended to circulate.&nbsp; Several years back when silver was low it dropped below the face value of the silver maple leaf and they could circulate (if you could get someone to accept them)&nbsp; but that didn&#039;t more up Canada&#039;s&nbsp; date for last issuing circulating silver coins.&nbsp; But the Mexican 10, 20, and possibly 50 New Pesos of 1993, 94, and 95 were released into circulation with the intention that they would circulate as &quot;coin of the realm&quot; along with the 1, 2, and 5 new pesos coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
