Update I found more bills today in my wallet~
I have a, small collection here, of some bills i pulled from the bank, i Know 2$ bills arnt worth anything however i decided to just go though all i get and pull out the ones with the interesting serial numbers. How much would this be worth if i sold it around and such?

I'm hoping i can like, idk, get some help from the pros eh?

    It is a 2003 very common note Especially in circulated condition.
    If you are looking for the better modern notes to set aside look for notes that have a star before the serial number.
    You should visit a local coin dealer and pick up a catalogue on US paper money, it is a good way to start you can look up any note and know which ones are the ones to look out for.
    Most 2 dollars notes are fairly common, I live in Canada and I can sell you bundles.

    A little research goes a long way also buy a catalog there is loads of information in there.
    Best way to start learning and enjoying numismatics. Goodluck kid

    The $1 silver certificate is worth $1.25 the others are face value. Thanks for sharing and keep hunting!

    I can't see the 1957-B very well but there was a variety that I'm not sure I see.

    Look at the first letter in the serial number, sometimes an M or W would get inserted upside down as a wrong substitue.

    Is the "W" in the serial truly a "W" or is it an upside down "M"?
    Can't really tell from the image and kinda see something...

    That's a proper W
