If it's mostly 1921 Morgans and 1922/1923 Peaces in Good to Fine,
I'd pass. If it's mostly pre-1921 Morgans and post-1923 Peaces
in Fine or better, I'd jump all over it. If it's somewhere in
between, I'd probably want to know some more details first ...

Thank you so much! Your advice was very helpful. I'll definitely take a
survey of the dates and conditions before I buy, but I just wanted the opinions
of the group. Thanks again.

I was saving the rest of my coin money for the guy
down the isle that had a large number of the modern
commemoratives for sale:-)
I had no trouble getting rid of all the rest of my money there.
He was quite happy to take it!

and
http://numismedia.com/fmv/prices/peadlr/pricesgd.shtml
To expand on what Dondi recommended, common Morgans in VG-8 are worth roughly
the $9.50; Peace Dollars should grade higher (F-12).
FWIW, at $6 per oz. (high at the moment), each silver dollar would be worth
about $4.64 melt.
I hope you'll come back and update us.
