Red seal $5 1953-C

This really is the first I've ever seen of them, I suppose though I'm
just wondering about their significance. Is there any value to them?
I've searched around a bit, and I've the most I've ever seen them go
for is maybe $10 or so. The one I've got is pretty worn, but it's not
discolored. The face of Lincoln isn't as clear as it could be.

I must slightly disagree.
It's true that most Dealers won't bother with them, and that the Note won't
realize much more than about $3 over Face Value; but to say that they have no
collector value is a statement too oversimplified to be correct.

As a matter of fact, I happen to know of a few people who *do* collect them,
and sometimes do pay a few bucks over face for them - my Mother is one of them.
