    How about the last US silver certificates in 1964?

    Maybe 1935 Peace dollar - last one made in US
    Maybe Panamanian Balboa - same weight and purity of US dollar and piece of 8. cements the historical importance and influence of the piece of 8

    Got the bullion version of this, surprisingly low mintage of 50,000.

    The first bi-metallic coin to be widely used in the 20th century is the 500 Lira issued by the Italian government in 1982.

    What about the 2002 Commonwealth Games trimetallic, is that the world's first?
