Are 100+ year old NET graded U.S. notes worth anything?

I have 3 old U.S. notes (from 1862, 1869, and 1907), graded 25 Net, 25 Net, and 53 Net. Shown below are actual scans of the notes. Do these have much value and how can i roughly estimate that value?

By the way does anyone know a link to any online value guides? I am guessing that net graded notes would sell for some fraction of a non-net note, but what is that fraction roughly (generally)?

I wonder if I should just toss them on eBay in an open auction, however if I would only get a $100 bid, i might just keep them, just for the history aspect. Any help out there from the experts? Thanks for any feedback or insight.

    Check ha.com for old results.

    You'll easily clear $100 on each note if you throw it on eBay. Easily.

    Yes, those are pretty looking notes but probably received the net grades due to processing/cleaning/pressing. They are all popular types and would do fine on Ebay or other wide exposure auctions.

    Same here. The old notes look much much better than ones we use now

    What notations are shown for NET grading ?
    I really like the bold coloring on the back of the GC.
