They are worthless. Greece abandoned their currency and is using the Euro. These bank notes are collectors items and their value is determined by criteria other than the exchange rate.

Greece did indeed abondon the drachma, but I can still answer your question… the rate when they switched to the euro was pegged at 340.75 Drachma for a Euro. So, the 1000 Drachma note would be 2.93 Euros, which at current interbank rates would equate to USD 4.15749
Of course, the notes themselves are worthless as no-one trades the actual cash anymore, and even if they did the interbank rate is no relation to what you would actually get for such a small amount.
