From 1816 to 1919 inclusive, British Shillings were minted from 0.925 fine silver.
The only exception to this was a Proof in gold FDC Shilling in 1816 which is so rare it is unlikely to exist outside of a museum.
If you do have a gold 1860 Shilling, it is because somebody has plated it, rendering it worthless as a collectible.
