Ah...those are Morgan Silver Dollars.  They go anywhere for $15-20 (depending on the silver value at the time) for a poor coin, to thousands for rare and mint condition ones.  Antique dealer should give you a rough estimate, but I would keep them.  I had a Morgan Silver Dollar years ago, but lost it during one of my many moves.  Good piece of American History there.
