[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1355314, member: 19065"]Welcome to the Paper Money section of CT. :smile First of all you should decide if this will include, large size [I]or[/I] small size currency [I]or[/I] [U]both[/U]. There are many ways to go and your budget is likely to be the biggest restriction on what you end up pursuing. These are two terrific books you should have, they list pretty much everything Series wise that will get you started and keep you going for a very long time, or until you run out of money or begin to narrow the set down to what you feel you can acquire to complete it. No one is really going to be able to list everything you might need to collect in a thread, it's too vast and there are books for that, so you just need to get the necessary guide books, start studying and learn how big the scope of your idea really is. You may also register a free account with [URL="http://www.ha.com"]Heritage Auctions[/URL] and make use of their Auction Archives, you can peruse all kinds of notes, coins, etc. on HA, but you can sort searches by denominations, size of currency, the different kinds of notes, LTs, GCs, FRBN, FRNs, et al.
