Unless they are very high grade, almost all are very common and worth about scrap silver price. Depending on where you are, you can go to a nearby coin show and dealers will give you about 88-90% of scrap price (worn coins weigh less than new ones). Full silver price today is 34.20. Each face dollar of your dated coins is .6 troy oz of silver, so it's a little more than $20.40 X face. You may be able to get a collector/investor to give you 21/22 or so. Those dates, unless a scarce variety, are pretty common. Your 69-72 dollars and halves are not silver and are worth $.50 or $1.
