When did people stop making silver coins?

The widespread minting of silver coins began to decline in the 20th century, particularly after the United States discontinued the use of silver in its coins in 1965. Other countries followed suit, largely due to rising silver prices and the costs associated with using precious metals in currency. By the late 20th century, most nations had transitioned to using base metals for their coins. Today, silver coins are primarily produced for collectors and investors rather than for everyday currency.
