If the bill doesn't match any of these, could you post a new question with its date, series letter, and seal color?
Whose face is on the US three dollar bill?
While the US Government does not print a real $3 bill, at one time, there WAS a real $3 private bank note, issued years ago when banks were allowed to do so. It was issued by the St. Nicholas Savings Bank of New York, and was popular at Christmas time. The face on the note was St. Nicholas- Santa Claus. Really.
The star at the end of the serial number signifies that the original note did not meet Federal printing standards and was replaced with that note.

Why is the pyramid of Giza on the American 1 dollar bill?
The pyramid is not the "Great Pyramid of Giza" it's an unfinished pyramid. The unfinished pyramid and the eye in a triangle on the reverse side are classic symbols. The Egyptian pyramid is a symbol of strength and duration, the 13 steps indicate the original number of U.S. states and the 13 steps leading to an unfinished summit indicates future growth of the nation.
As you have seen in many other similar posts, a bill's serial number hardly ever matters to its value. Date and condition are more important.

Do defective us bank notes have a high value?
If by "defective" you mean that they have a printing or other manufacturing error, yes, they can be worth a considerable amount of money depending on the nature of the error. However, it's not possible to give a specific value without more information.

The thirteen leaves are those of an olive branch, a traditional symbol of peace. The 13 leaves on the olive branch symbolize the original 13 colonies.

However, the country always stands ready to fight if necessary.
Why won't anyone take your US 100 dollar bills with a CB serial number on it?
I've never heard of that before. The C is merely the letter indicator for the issuing Federal Reserve bank (in this case Philadelphia), while the B is nothing more than part of the note's serial number. There is nothing special at all about the combination. My advice would be to check with a bank to see if the note you have is counterfeit. If not, simply have them exchange it for lower-denomination bills. People who are not knowledgeable about money can have very odd ideas. Some people think that the state quarters are only valid for purchases in the state they honor, while others believe that the Sacagawea dollar coins contain real gold, and still others think $2 bills have a curse on them. Every one of these beliefs is 100% false
Assuming your bill is in crisp uncirculated condition, a major misalignment error as you describe will be worth $300-$600
What does a green star printed on a five dollar bill mean?
If you are refering to a star following the serial number, it indicates that this note was inserted into a bundle of bills as a replacement for a mis-printed one. If it is just a star printed somewhere else, it probably means that someone was playing with a set of rubber stamps.
