<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 304664, member: 5233&quot;]OK, I am interested in started a collection of bank notes and was wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction.&nbsp; I have collected coins for over a decade now...and I feel its time to expanded into notes.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I think I&#039;m going to start off slow...perhaps work on a set of small-sized $2 bills.&nbsp; The $2 bill has always interested me (as its somewhat ignored it in the &quot;real world&quot; it seems).&nbsp; I also like it because it seems like a somewhat smaller set.&nbsp; I know some of the early star notes are somewhat scarce...but I&#039;ll worry about those last.&nbsp; Plus, I work at a bank with a supply of $2 bills so I should be able to complete a FRN set pretty easy I would think.&nbsp; I could just buy the US Notes down the road.&nbsp; Plus, at this time I&#039;m more interested in a circulated collection...especially with the red sealed notes.&nbsp; So, I think this is something doable with not a lot of investment.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do have a few questions though.&nbsp; First off, I would like to understand the differences between the US Notes and the FRNs.&nbsp; I understand the differences in the notes themselves...but the differences legally is more what I&#039;m looking for.&nbsp; Also, what is the best way to store a collection.&nbsp; I have heard of mylar pages in notebooks...but does this really provide any protection for the notes (I know this first collection probably won&#039;t have much value...but I&#039;d still like to protect it).&nbsp; Finally, what are some good resources I should look in to as I begin this new hobby (books, websites, ect...)?</p><p><br /></p><p>One more thing, does this seem like a good place to start?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
