<p>[QUOTE=&quot;d_lairson, post: 313991, member: 8441&quot;]So, while I have been collecting coins for a couple of years I have recently branched out into paper money. It started with my desire to get a complete bicentennial set, and that included the 1976 series $2. After that, since I was collecting world coins with Buddhist images I branched out to include currency with Buddhist images/themes on them. My problem is that my paper money collection is growing faster than my coin collection, thanks in large part to the amazingly low price of most world currency in my area (southeast asia mostly) and I&#039;m not sure what to do with it all...</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I&#039;ve decided to start a small collection of US paper money, concentrating on $2 bills (of course my coin collection started with just Lincoln cents and look where I am now...). </p><p><br /></p><p>So my main question is storage, I keep the notes in those plastic holders you can buy online, but what do I do after that? My collection is both small bills and large bills and I would like to add 4 subject uncut sheets to the mix. What works best? Shoe boxes? Binders (do they make pages to hold currency holders for binders?)? </p><p><br /></p><p>All my coins fit neatly into little red boxes (or larger blue ones for the proofs) and it looks all respectable. My currency is a pile of plastic holders that love to slip and slide all over and get into everything. I need help!</p><p><br /></p><p>My second question is, for the sake of my inventory spreadsheet, what info is needed to categorize US paper money? I know for coins its series, denomination, mint mark, that sort of thing, but I am lost when it comes to paper money. I remember being told that US paper money is printed for different Federal Reserve Banks, like Atlanta or New York, and I know that they come in series named for the year, but the series does not change every year like coins, but that is the extent of my knowledge. </p><p><br /></p><p>Please Help!</p><p><br /></p><p>Cheers,</p><p>David[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
