If you go to the bank with a silver certificate will they give you a silver dollar for it?

No. Redemption of silver certificates was halted in the 1960s, when the price of silver was deregulated and the US stopped backing its money with precious metals. The government could no longer guarantee a fixed amount of silver for each dollar, and in fact the Treasury's stockpile of silver was sold off.
