Sure, lots of them, from 5 cents through the dollar from 1858 until 1967. Most pre-1920 stuff is .925 Ag, then 1920-1966 usually .800 Ag. The transition years of 1966-1968 have some denominations of .500 Ag .. kind of a mix and match for those years.

5 cents 1858-1921, 10 cents 1858-1968, 20 cents 1858, 25 cents 1870-1968, 50 cents 1970-1967, $1 1935-1967. 1858-1919 is .925 silver, 1920-1966 is .800 fine, 1967 50 cents and dollar are .800 fine, 1967 10 cents and 25 cents are either .500 or .800 fine, 1968 dimes and quarters can be either .500 fine or nickel. These are the circulating coins. There are NCLT coins of many denominations that are silver.
