It's an obsolete form of paper money called a silver certificate. Up till the mid-1960s silver certificates could be exchanged for a dollar's worth of silver. When the price of silver was deregulated the Treasury stopped issuing silver certificates and suspended their exchange for silver metal. Please see the Related Question for values.
Silver certificates were never officially withdrawn. After the price of silver was deregulated the Treasury simply stopped redeeming them for silver metal and declared them to be equivalent to Federal Reserve Notes, with no precious-metal equivalency. Silver certificates gradually wore out and were replaced by new FRNs during the normal course of currency replacement. They occasionally showed up in circulation well into the 1970s, possibly later in some parts of the country.
The last silver certificates were printed in the early 1960s, although they were dated 1957 B. During the 19th century silver certificates were at some point printed in every denomination from $1 to $1000. Only $1, $5, and $10 bills were printed as silver certificates during the 20th century. When the price of silver was deregulated the government could no longer exchange silver certificates for a fixed amount of metal, so redemption was halted to prevent people from speculating on price fluctuations. Because they were no longer "convertible", silver certificates became just like other bills in circulation. There was no longer any need for separate types of paper money so production was stopped. By 1969 all $1, $5, and $10 bills were issued as Federal Reserve Notes. Silver certificates remained in circulation but gradually disappeared as they wore out.

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.

No. Sell them for the collector value then buy silver!MoreThe government stopped redeeming silver certificates for silver metal in 1968, after the price of silver was deregulated.

Silver certificate (and all other bills, for that matter) are circulated rather than marketed. "Marketing" means to put up for sale.Silver certificates were introduced in 1878. They were backed dollar-for-dollar by an equivalent amount of silver on deposit with the Treasury. They were discontinued in the early 1960s when the price of silver had to be deregulated, which meant there was no longer any way to keep a fixed link between the bills' values and silver metal's value.Silver certificates were never withdrawn or demonetized. The Treasury simply stopped redeeming them for silver. The bills gradually disappeared from circulation as they wore out or people saved them as keepsakes.
