Silver dollars were minted on and off from 1794 to 1935 so that's an extremely broad question. You need to know the coins' dates and mint marks before you can determine how much they're worth. Check a site such as www.numismedia.com for more information on values, and www.coinfacts.com for pictures and mint mark locations.
If you are using the common term "silver dollar" for any dollar coins minted in 1971 and later, they're made of cupronickel or brass, and nearly all of these are only worth $1.
What was family life like in the 70's?
In the 70's, family life was a bit simpler than it is today. There were fewer working mothers, so more mom's were able to be home with and for the children, and meal time was more family time, instead of fast food take out. Also, not having constant outside interruptions (cell phones, email, etc.) helped keep things more simple, and families communicated better with each other instead of the person on the other end of the cell phone or email. The television programs didn't have as much violence and profanity, so there weren't as many bad influences on teens. God was still allowed in the classrooms, and there were no school shootings. It was safer to sleep with bedroom windows open at night, and was safer to walk where you wanted to go without as much fear of being attacked as there is today.
