No they are of minimal value. They were issued recently and can be purchased mint or used for about 15 cents, but no dealer would be interested in them. The exception would be if they were coils, are still connected and have a plate number on them.
Scott #1897 or perhaps #2225(coil)
The stamp can be purchased new or used for 15 cents, which pretty much means that a dealer isn't going to pay you anything for one.
Identify the exact stamp using a catalog. This may involve learning about perforations, watermarks and colors as well as condition. The catalog will provide a value. The value is what a collector could expect to pay for a stamp in fine/very fine condition. If selling, most cases you would be lucky to get 75% of the catalog, unless it is very valuable, then an auction would be worth looking into.
The most common American catalog for identification is Scott's. Others are Stanley Gibbons, Minkus and even the US Postal Service Catalog of stamps.
Note that this stamp is not from 1880s, that is when the omnibus that is pictured is from. This is Scott # 1897. It has a minimal value and can be purchased for 15 cents. A dealer isn't going to want to purchase one.
You will need to consult the catalogs and do some research. Most libraries will have a copy of Scott's Postage Stamp Catalog of the World. First of all, you have to identify the specific stamp or card. That in itself can be a daunting task, but most of the catalogs are well illustrated with lots of information. Once you know what item you have, the catalog will provide a set of prices that can be used to estimate value.
This stamp isn't worth a lot. It is Scott Catalog #1897, 1897A & 2225. Issued as a regular issue. 100's of millions were printed. There are 4 values for this stamp and they are:

(Scott Specialized Catalog of US Stamps 2011, pages 161 & 182 )
That would be Scott number 1898. You can buy a mint or used copy for 15 cents. It was issued in 1981.
That would be Scott number US 2225. It has a catalog value of 20 cents used and 20 cents mint.
It is not a one dollar stamp, it is a 1 cent stamp. That would be Scott number US 2225. It has a minimal value of 20 cents mint and 20 cents used.

Yes, it is still valid for 1 cents worth of postage. Note that the year indicates the date of the Omnibus, not of the stamp. Scott # 1897 was issued in 1981.
This is Scott #1897. This stamp is not from 1880s, that is when the omnibus that is pictured is from. It was issued 100 years later in the 1980's and has a minimal value and can be purchased for 15 cents. A dealer isn't going to want to purchase just one.
it's a bicentennial bill with the stamp of the day and cancelled the day it was printed.
Two-dollar bills are generally worth two dollars. Adding a postage stamp to it wouldn't affect the value if the bill. The stamp itself, if rare, might be worth more than two dollars.
As of today 45/100 of a dollar or 45 cents
There have been many pictures on the $1 postage stamp. The most recent stamp pictures Scott Number 3766 shows 'Wisdom.'
