People call them "silver" dollars just because of the size, but none of the Eisenhower dollars struck for general circulation from 1971-78 contain any silver.
If your coins were found at a bank or in circulation they are face value. Only proof and uncirculated coins have more than face value. From 1971-1976 the US Mint did offer "collectors" coins struck in 40% silver as Proof & Uncirculated coins, both types bear the "S" mintmark and were sold separately and not included in the standard Mint and Proof sets sold.
