So I stop by the local coin store to get some holders for the bills. The guy there said he would gladly offer me $100 for all of them in that the condition was poor and none of them were hard to come by. So I said okay and sold them all to him for hundred dollars!

I really hope you didn't. If you did, the guy at the coin shop ripped you off. Don't sell them for anything less than $1000. The 1869 $1 note and the 1918 $2 battleship note alone are worth in the vicinity of $800. The others sell between $50 and $150 apiece, except for the 1923 $1 silver certificate, which can be sold upwards of $25.

You may wish to look at Ebay, in the Completed Listings section to see what similar bills have actually sold for--versus just listed.
Don......

I'm going to start them tonight. .99 cent starting bid. No reserve! All of them.

Auctions are done. I have one left. The lcs guy offered $100 for all. They sold for $860. The last one should sell around $125-150.
