A little hard to say here. I had a recent chance to price several of my own. The star ones are worth more than the others.
Value is relative as some collectors will pay more and others maybe 3 to 10 times face value.
I would recommend taking them in to a coin shop and having them look at them.

Condition is THE most important aspect in any collectible except for the rarest of the rare, when it is much less a factor. If the 1953 bills were in crisp, new condition, they would be in the $25-35 range unless there was some special sequence in the serial number, and then there might be a premium. The star note would be worth a premium. The silver certificates in ‘old’ condition might be worth a ten percent premium (1.10) to a dealer if you had a large quantity of them. If your bills are well-used, many fold lines, bent corners, it’s pretty much spending money.
