What was the last year British coins contained only silver?

Prior to 1920, British silver coins were made from 92.5 % silver. Due to the steep rise in the price of silver, British silver coins were then made from 50% silver until 1947 when all silver was required to repay war loans to the USA. From 1947 onwards, all British general circulation "silver" coins were made from a copper/nickel alloy giving a silvery appearance. Many non-circulating and proof coins are still made from silver, but this is reflected in the price you pay for them.
