I haven't been able to find much in regards to storing entire bep bank wraps... this was my first acquisition that got me started in looking for fancy serial numbers etc... and I'd like to find a protective cover that can house the whole thing and help preserve it.  I did ask this in one of my other topics, but I haven't gotten any answers... so I thought I'd give it another go with its own thread. If the consensus is that it won't be necessary to store them as a wrap, then I'll go the regular route of individual storage or a multi page album... |

I've seen protective box-style cases. Probably check the usual hobby store web sites.

How about a zip-lock freezer bag with as much air removed as you possibly can. Also,one of those foodsaver vacuum machines works well,I have heard. They do cost a bit but you can use it for your food also. John1  |

Thank you! That was exactly what I was looking for. Every time I tried to google it, I'd find single bill protectors, sheet style protectors, little file cabinet boxes for singles etc... I probably didn't type in the correct wording to find just what you found there. I do appreciate the help! Thanks.

I believe one of the "big three" currency collectors here also mentioned Capital Plastics having a strap holder.

I say a ziplock bag wouldn't be bad idea at all.

Is there any reason I might have of wanting to keep the set intact, rather than just taking out the 24000042 and 24000024?
Would the value as a set 50 years from now in preserved condition make it better than just the singles?
Or, do these hold no more value than 'sentimental to me' because it was my very first set that got me into this form of collecting?
Someone else mentioned I had a good find and I should try to sell in on the bay with a $1,000 price tag and accept offers... just to see what happens... I have no illusions that I hit on something THAT rare... but it just makes me curious on what I should do with it... my original intention was to get some $2's to spend and give out as gifts etc...
