If I'm in the wrong place, please advise. Total noob to currency.

While going through my dad's estate, I found a check cover containing 15 consecutively numbered 1957B Silver Certificates in what I can only call "factory new" condition. I know very little about currency short of what I've gleaned here and there, and individual certs don't seem to have much value from what I've found.

My question is, would 15 consecutive mint state silver certs be worth any more than their individual value? Does anyone collect consecutively numbered bills?

Appreciate any insight or additional information.

Thank you!

I would say that all depends on the serial numbers. Fancy vs common random numbers.

Can you show us a photo of a typical note? Also give us the serial number range.

Here are the notes. I carefully spread them all out to show all the serial numbers in sequence.

Nothing special with the serial numbers - I don't know if selling them as a bunch or singularly would be better. Maybe like in groups of 3 or 4 consecutive numbers might fetch a better premium!

Interesting. Like I said, I have no idea. I sincerely appreciate the perspective, Marve.

Nice looking group!

Having them in sequence has to appeal to someone?

Good input. Many thanks. Looks like they'll become fodder for the change machine at the carwash.

Looking at ebay sold values, it appears they are worth more than "fodder for the change machine at the carwash".

I would not do that.

Take them to a coin show. Maybe a dealer will give you more than face and a decent deal on some coins.
