I bet the one with gw is worth something
 

Yes they are worth something. The $1 is a keeper although condition plays a roll. The red seal $2 is a keeper. I always collect any old bills I find...
 

The old sawhorse buck even in that condition might get you $20 or more. The rest are only worth about face value in those conditions.
 

I guess I’d never seen the reverse of the old 1875 $1 bill.

I sure wouldn’t want to get caught counterfeiting those..... $5,000 fine or 5 years hard labor!.....yikes!
 

The $1.00 Bill is probably the Only one a Dealer would pay a decent Premium For.

but beware crooks.

the Red Seal $2 should Get ya $5 at least, But most dealers I know,
Have tried To Trade me $2 even up for Mine.
Since there are Crooked Mail Order dealers Charging $20 and more for them.
And Local Dealers Charging $5 up

I laughed at them & spent them in stores instead, Hoping someone Better then a Dealer Got them.

I actually Got some for Face Value at the Bank last year,
For Christmas Gifts.

My guess The $20 will get ya $20 From a Dealer Too.

But EBay may get ya Double or more on the right day

My guesses:
The $2 trades at par. The $20 might get you $40 and the 1875 --$1 Legal Tender Note (Allison/Wyman) might get you between $50 and $80 since in VG-8 one guide lists it at $160. That bill may be the first of its kind presented on Treasurenet; great save.
Don....
 

Thank you all for the help with an idea on pricing. These belong to my father in law and he has a few more that I will post later. Thanks again
 

Around here, you could get $30 to $40 for the 1928 $20 Bill, $50 or more for the 1875 Old Sawhorse $1 Bill and maybe $3 to $4 for the 1953 $2 Bill.
 

I collect two dollar bills Id give 4 each on those. I think they will grow in value but much further down the road.
