Well first off I read online that about 1 in every 100,000 notes is a star note. I'm not so sure this is true since in just today, I found two of them. Anyways tell me which ones to put back in the circulation (Already pretty certain the 10 has to go back in due to the writing+non special serial number, but I'm keeping the "L33337" note because that's one that made me smile due to the internet picking up on something called l33t speak.)
So yeah, here they are.

From what I see, none are really worth over face value. Anyone want to argue that?

The 10 seems to have a pretty heavy treasury stamp on it. If that sets it aside at all.

EDIT: Also I framed a crisp $5 2003 bill with no fold marks or any sign of wear. Good idea to get a sleeve to put it in and just hoard it for the years to come and see if it gains any value?

Not that sure if it matters but I had barely noticed this on the $1 star note

Overall, current average is 3.2 star notes per 1,000 regular notes.

As per the rest of the notes it's your call. I just save the notes and if I was to frame each and every UNC note I will go broke.

However, I have a note that was framed for about 40 years and it has some what of a diff feel to it.

Peace
