Silver certificates were discontinued in the early 1960s, although the last bills were dated 1957 B.
They're no longer exchangeable for silver coins or silver metal; that was suspended in 1968. Technically they're still legal tender and can be spent like other paper money, but that's not really a good idea because some are worth more than face value to a collector.

Do silver certificates have a piece of metal in them?
No, silver certificates don't and never did contain any precious metal. The entire basis for them was that they were a kind of promissory note; in other words a paper replacement for silver coins. If you think about it for a second or two, it would make no sense to embed a dollar's worth of silver into a paper bill that could be torn or burned, as opposed to simply carrying a dollar's worth of silver coins. The bills were called "certificates" because each one had to be backed by its value in silver metal kept on deposit with the Treasury. They could be redeemed at any time by anyone for silver coins so the total value of silver certificates in circulation was limited by the total amount of metal kept in the Treasury.
