Yes, the Mexican 20 peso coin, minted from 1982 to 1992, contains silver. Specifically, it is composed of 72% silver, making it a popular choice for collectors and investors. However, modern 20 peso coins, introduced after 1992, do not contain silver and are made of other metals instead. Always check the specific year and type of coin for accurate information.
There is no silver in any circulating Australian decimal coin.
A 1938 Mexican 20 centavos coin contains approximately 0.072 troy ounces of silver, as it is composed of 92.5% silver (0.925 fineness). The value of the coin in terms of silver content fluctuates with current silver market prices. As of October 2023, if silver is priced around $25 per ounce, the intrinsic silver value would be about $1.80. However, numismatic value may vary based on condition, rarity, and demand, potentially increasing its worth beyond the silver content alone.
The U.S. did not make any $20 silver coins, look at the coin again and post new question.

Your 1981 Mexican 20 peso coin is made of cupro-nickel and worth less than a dollar if circulated (and maybe $2 or $3 if uncirculated).
No such coin exists for a few reasons. Number 1, all US coin denominations (that were intended for circulation) greater than $1 are in gold. A silver $20 coin would be huge, the size of 20 silver dollars. (On the other hand, a $20 gold piece is roughly the size of a silver dollar) Number 2, there is no US coin struck with the date of 1776. Nor is there any other country using the currency of "dollar" that would have struck a $20 silver coin. What you have is a fantasy piece, post a new question including what the coin really is, its weight, diameter, and all other information about it, because it is not a US coin. (and most likely isn't even silver)
