    I'd like to display my currency, I'd like something easy to use, overtly safe, something that won't ever damage the currency (No PVC), and something that could hold a lot of notes. Along with these, do you have any tips?
    Thanks

    The Lighthouse brand of pages and binders is a popular solution. You can get pages that hold 1, 2, 3 or 4 notes, depending on their size, so you'll end up having a stock of various ones if you collect notes of varying sizes. Personally I put my notes in mylar holders, and then slip them into these pages. I know some folks skip the holder and put the note directly in the page.

    For the Mylar holders, I hear the bills slip out easily, especially the top row. Is this true?

    How I display my currency. I have to bring them in if rain is in the forecast.

    Steve you just shocked me.. but I had a good early morning laugh! :woot:

    By the way.. Blue Tape is the best to use on Paper Currency but not for extended periods of time.. I believe any adhesive would alter the color where it's taped on.

    I presume you mean the holder (and its contained note) slipping out of the page. Yes with this setup, I certainly do not want to hold the binder upside down and allow gravity to take effect.

    Personally, I think the 16 penny nail is overkill, to each his own I guess.

    Never naked.

    The use of a slipcover for most albums is recommended, especially when transporting.

    But the blue tape doesn't leave residue...

    Dansco, Whitman, and similar album pages have PVC, will the notes be damaged?
