Leftover Lira

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I found some Italian lira leftover from a long ago trip. Can I turn it in to an Italian bank, or shall I just frame it as a souvenir?

Thank you.

I think you can still cash it at one bank in Rome, but do not bother unless it is multiple thousands of paper lira.

We normally get cash from ATMs as we need it, but need to arrive Rome with a fairly large amount of euro..
