<p>[QUOTE="WEG, post: 1259151, member: 32893"]PVC will damage both coins and paper currency. Paper stored in a holder made with PVC will have a waxy look to it. You can remove that wax like film but the note is already damaged. Unless you are going to treat your notes very, very roughly there is no reason to have them in inflexible holders. With normal handling I do not think you could make a fold in a note that is in a thin mylar holder. A person would have to try (work at it) to make fold in a note in a thin mylar holder. If you fold it over and step on the fold you would be successful in making a crease in the note if desired.</p><p><br /></p><p>I purchase my holders from The Sellitstore. It's my preference to get the large size holder for both large and small size notes. I have no problem handling notes after washing my hands and it's easier to insert or remove notes from the large size holders. A lot of collectors use the holders from The Sellitstore. I have no affiliation with them, I just use their holders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
