Yes and no. No, there are no silver colored dollar coins being produced. No, there are no coins being produced today intended for circulation that do contain silver. But yes, there are Silver Eagles which are larger than the traditional "silver dollar" and they contain 1 troy ounce of silver and these are being produced today. Even though they have a face value of one dollar, the mint sells them for close to spot price, expect to pay around $34-35 today for a 2012 silver eagle in uncirculated, and close to $90 for one in proof condition.
