Thanks for all the info guys I will be buying sleeves for my world notes and US, mother in law just gave us about 60 Barr star notes her and her husband found in the wild back then, need to get them in sleeves. Most are in really good shape.
So, another option is albums. For a couple of the countries that I have a lot of notes for and really want to display easily, I use 3-pocket binder sheets in a Lighthouse binder with slipcase. They look great on the shelf and are super easy to flip through. You probably wouldn't want to do that with all your notes, but it's nice for the ones you like looking at frequently.
Note: this is a relatively expensive option when compared to sleeves and a currency storage box, which work just as well if not better for archival purposes.
When you get a few more posts, gaman, think about selling some of those Barr stars on CCF!
