Sorry to pop any bubble you may have, but assuming the coins are all dated 1965 or later they're only worth face value. Dimes and quarters from 1965 and later are made of copper-nickel and don't have any silver, so they have no value to a metal dealer. However if there are any halves mixed in that are dated 1969 or earlier, they contain anywhere from 40% to 90% silver, so those would be worth more if sold to a metal dealer.

If you can't spend them easily, DO NOT TAKE THEM TO A COIN-COUNTING MACHINE! Those machines take 8 to 10 cents out of every dollar put in as a so-called "convenience" fee. Call a couple of banks and see if they take unwrapped coins. If you live in the northeast part of the U.S. there's a big chain bank with a green logo* that will count coins for free.
