unfortunately dealers (At least the ones I Met)
will only pay face value for Silver certificates that
are not in Mint condition, but sell them at a Premium.

EBay would be the best way to profit from it.

Personally I Spent all Mine in stores Rather then Giving them
to dealers to make money off

In VF-20 condition, it retails for just over $10; if a STAR bill, about $40. Best shot, as Jeff mentioned, is eBay-- IMO.

You may want to invest in a copy of the Red Book for paper currency
