can you still get silver dollars at the bank

[DelEmma]

That's a great question, and the short answer is that it's extremely unlikely to get a true silver dollar from a bank in your regular day-to-day transactions.

You can definitely still get one-dollar coins from a bank. If you ask for dollar coins, they will likely give you modern ones like the Presidential, Sacagawea, or American Innovation series dollars. While these are fun to collect, they are made of metals like copper and manganese and do not contain any silver. They are worth their face value of one dollar.

Genuine silver dollars, such as the classic Morgan and Peace dollars, haven't been in circulation for many decades. Their value is tied to their high silver content, which makes them worth far more than their one-dollar face value. Because of this, they were long ago pulled out of circulation by collectors and investors.

While it is technically possible that someone could unknowingly deposit an old silver dollar from an inherited collection, the chances of that coin making it to you are incredibly slim. It's not a reliable method for finding them. If you're looking to acquire silver dollars, your best bet would be to visit a local coin shop, a pawn shop, or check with reputable online precious metals dealers.
