No, the value depends on the purity of silver, which coins you are talking about and the silver spot price. Currently, all US 90% silver coins (quarters, dimes and half dollars dated 1964 and before) are worth in melt value about 21 times face value. The percentage varies if you are talking about 40% silver half dollars (dated 1965-1970) and 35% silver war nickels (nickels dated 1942-1945 with a large mintmark over the Monticello). Of course, if silver were to go back up, they'd be worth more times face value. If silver drops, they'd be worth less than 21 times face value.

How do you know if a coin is worth anything?
With US coins there are easy ways to know if your coin is worth more than face value. If it is a Quarter or Dime with a date of 1964 or earlier, it is silver and worth several times face value. If you have a Half-dollar dated 1964 or earlier it is 90% silver and worth many times face value. If you have a Half-dollar dated 1965-1970 they are 40% silver and are worth a few dollars. As for pennies, even common-date wheat pennies are worth at least 2 or 3 cents with some being worth hundreds of dollars in high grades. Nickels made between 1942-1945 with a large P, D, or S above the Monticello on the reverse are worth several times face value because they are 35% silver. Any coin that has a design different than usual, such as buffalo nickels are also worth more than face value.

I don't think it is worth much. You might be offered 3 times the face value at most. Most coins after 1965 are worth less because the silver content in them is different. Coins prior to 1964 are worth about 10 times the face value at most because of the silver content. Many jewelers and companies are buying old coins nowadays.
