If any of the dimes and quarters are dated before 1964, then yes, mess with'em. They were pure silver up until then. Also, if any are marked under the year with S, D or P, there may be even more value to them, depending on what they are.
The 1921 silver dollar may be worth $15 if it's a Morgan dollar or up to $175 if it's something called a "peace dollar'.
Your best best is to find a coin collector or a store catering to them and find stuff out-but don't take the word of just one, go to two. Or, just buy one of those little paperbacks at Barnes and Nobles covering coin collecting.
