Not much.

"Good" means "Bad".
(No... really!)

If really "good" then bullion value = a couple of dollars.
If actually "Very Fine", (which is *much* better than "good") about $10.

Buying a "Red Book" would be a good idea, but this will help in the interim:

Good does mean bad, 1921 Peace Dollars are worth more than the Morgan
dollars. More specifics...more answer.

I don't know the grading system, but from your comments it sounds as if they
are somewhat better than "good". They have a bust of liberty on the ?face.
I did not think to see what mint markings; is that critical?

They only minted 1,010,000 of those. Known as a key date. The only year
peace dollar with a high relief.
Lower grade 1921 Peace dollars go for between $15 to $20 on e-bay anyhow.
High grade brilliant uncirculateds go for upwards of $500. Really high
grades go for whatever someone is willing to pay and if you have to ask you
can't afford one ;-)

Both types have a Liberty bust. The Peace dollar has "IN GOD WE TRVST" on
the obverse (front). If you have that one, it is worth something. TRENDS
(retail) has that one listed from Very Good (a low grade) at $50 to MS66 (a
very high grade) at $7500.
My bet is that you have the Morgan type which starts at $9 in good. If you
post some pictures at alt.binaries.pictures.numismatic I'm sure you could
get some opinions on the grade and the value.

Will the front be the Liberty side?

Yes.

This is a 1921 Morgan Dollar.

This is a 1921 Peace Dollar.

If you have a Morgan, it's worth $7 to $8. If you have a Peace dollar,
it's likely worth $40+, depending on condition.

There were two types of silver dollars with Lady Liberty on the front in
1921. (Both had eagles on the back, too.) Can you post a picture to a web
site or alt.binaries.pictures.numismatic?

Thanks for the help. I am sure they are Morgan's in pretty good shape. Not
worth a whole lot, but neat anyway.
