Storage Box for "Slabbed" Paper Currency?

    I'd like to get boxes for storing my currency notes which have been graded and are in the plastic currency holders, like this:

    $1-1957A-Star-o.jpg

    Naturally I'd like something of archival quality (acid-free, etc.)
    The "slabs" are about 5" high and slightly over 8" wide.

    Are there boxes made for this?
    Or what do you use?

    Open to suggestions.

    The only ones I can find online are from China.
    I would prefer not to buy from China.
    Plus shipping from there is on the order of a month -- or more.

    I don't collect slabbed notes but I have some.

    I put them in ring binders along with all my other world banknotes.
    The sleeves are what stamp collectors put FDC's in.

    I have many thousands of notes and non have disintegrated or got damaged like some of the scare stories you hear.

    Works for me.

    Yes, to answer your question. Wizard carries graded currency size boxes as well as several other coin supply places.

    Ooooo, good.
    Thanks for the info.
    I checked them out and I'm quite sure that's what I want.
    Hope so.
    I ordered a bunch.

    Instead of getting the boxes from Wizard, I bought their 2-pocket pages.
    Turns out those particular pages can handle the size of graded currency.

    Old thread, I know - but I've been looking for a good solution for storing slabbed notes. I just bought one of these boxes - it'll arrive tomorrow and I look forward to it. Thanks for the tip.
