I doubt you could actually redeem it in 1963. Still sad.

The Secretary of the Treasury halted redemption of silver certificates for silver dollar coins in March 1964. So, I assume that you could redeem in 1963. Further, you could redeem for silver bullion up to June 1968. At least that is what the Treasury stated.

Yes, one could have redeemed it for five shiny silver dollars, back then. Even without the "In God We Trust" that is missing on the back, of this $5.
