Sell them. Even in "circulated" condition they're worth more than the market
value of the silver content.
I go through my change before dumping it in the bucket to make sure there are no
interesting coins in it. Found an Indian Head penny once & I get at least one
wheat penny a month. And rarely, I'll still find pre-1964 silver quarters &
dimes. Those DO NOT go into the bucket for my end of the year cash-in.
*They* have proposed doing away with the penny here in the U.S. because it costs
more than 1ยข to make them, but the "American People" have roundly rejected the
idea. Don't know what they'd dump in Boston Harbor this time, but there'd be a
revolution if *they* tried to do it.
I still stoop down to pick up pennies if I see one on a sidewalk or in parking
lot.
The counted coins came to $79.83 and there were a dime, a nickel and a penny in
the counting machine's rejected coin slot. The penny looked like one of those I
might have picked up from a parking lot somewhere, but when I looked around
outside the credit union (and even dug around under the seats of my Jeep) I just
couldn't find another penny to make it an even $80.
Like coppers, "There's never one around when you need one!"

I've got a pile of American silver dollars from the 1920s and 30s. I'm
trying to decide if I should melt them down and sell the silver or sell
them as rather worn coins.

Took all my collected change from 2019 to the credit union to cash in
today.
Came to $79.99 ... just one penny short of being $80.
