i like to store my currency in albums but I get paranoid everytime I turn the pages thinking that I am going to crease wrinkle or bend the notes. the notes are stored in a non rigid mylar holder and then placed in the album pages. I came up with the idea of putting a piece of cardboard in the album page behind the currency holder so the currency wont bend. but I wont be able to see the reverse side of the note is this a good idea. does anyone else have a better idea or way to store my notes thanks.

Hi, in Australia you can buy rigid plastic sleeves of which you insert the entire sleeve (containing the banknotes) and problem should be solved. These pages are low cost and assist in keeping your pages intact and wrinkle-free.

Depends on if you like to look at them alot, or show them off. What iconcoins said is true. There are rigid sleeves that could help out. But then you get into the debate of PVC vs. Mylar.

I store mine in boxes(thick thick cardboard) to complete I guess you can say sets.
Air-tites.com has them, and you can fit 125 notes in one box using the non rigid mylar. 55 if your using the rigid pvc kind. Plus these boxes are easier to store in a safe than a album.

I dont know thats just my take on it. I was never a fan of the albums.
