Hello

I am not well versed on notes. Was wondering if these notes were
of any value (over face:)
Also have a 1957 $1.00 blue seal type silver certificate in VF/EF
condition.
Thank you for any info.

The 5 dollar red seal may fetch 7-8 bucks or so on ebay

The 1 dollar 2003 fed note wont carry a premium. I might consider keeping the bill for my collection since it only cost a dollar..

The silver cert may get 5-6 bucks on ebay (including shipping) depending on the condition.

I would keep all three because I think they're fun to look at, but as far as profit goes I don't see too much there..

I would hold onto those. Who knows one day they coule be worth a lot.

The silver certificates fetch a pretty high dollar if you have a lot of them

Nope, bookends start and end with the same numbers- in this case 721

Dhughesz28,
you are correct on the radar- same frontwards as backwards, aka palindromic.
I am not big into fancy serial numbers but I would assume that three number bookends are more desirable than two or one number bookends. Of course, a four number bookend would not be a bookend at all, just a repeater.
