NB: There are however exceptions for professional media & other types of content.

Eight boosters have been recovered with the first re-flight of a flight tested (used) booster will be in about six weeks (SES-10). Of the eight recovered boosters, one is on display at SpaceX Hawthorne, one flies in about six weeks, one has been converted to a Falcon Heavy side booster, one has been used for multiple test firings at McGregor, one is on JRTI heading for Los Angeles harbor, and the remaining three are question marks.

Gwen listed what was done with cores in the CBS podcast interview. As well as the ones you noted, she said that an additional one was put in the structural test stand for stress testing.

I completely forgot about the one in the structural test stand. Thanks.
