Just wanted to get some input on what I have here for errors. I dont know too much about paper currency errors. I am actually surprised I caught these in a recent hoard collection I acquired.

Nice assortment. I see 3 gutter folds, one with minor misalignment. A butterfly fold, 2 misalignment notes and a deuce that may or may not have been trimmed. I do not consider the $2 to be a legitimate error. The coolest example is definitely the $10. Thanks for sharing.

SteveInTampa,
As we all know,condition is all important. How does condition factor in on these?

isn't there some alignment issue going on with the $2 bill? I notice that the seal is definitely off center

Yes, the $2 has third print centering issues. The condition makes some difference in value but not as much as other error notes. Gutter folds are the 2nd most popular error, just behind ink smears. Gutter folds are perceived as being more valuable when they appear through the center portrait, like the $5 note.

I own only one gutter fold note and it also has seen plenty of circulation. It's a little more dramatic than the OP's errors.
