I found some auction prices in the $2 range. The fact that you have consecutive notes might bring a bit more.
Because you're only looking at a max of ~$20 profit you'll have to decide whether you want to go the eBay route or visit a dealer. A dealer will pay less but you avoid shipping, etc.
Regardless of age, bills circulate until they're worn out. That's why you can sometimes find 50s and 100s printed a half-century ago - until recently they didn't circulate all that much and took a long time to wear out.
Also, banks don't dispose of worn bills. They send them to the BEP for destruction.

: 19 of them, must have spent a few.
: All PERFECT [purfect], crisp and in sequence.
: Should I keep? or send them on their way?
: Will banks destroy as they find?
