That sounds like a lovely project. I’d start by slipping each bill into a clear, acid‑free sleeve so the paper stays protected and you can see the date or serial number. Stick a tiny sticky note or a small card on the back of each sleeve with the year, serial number, and a short note about any special detail you notice—maybe a tiny portrait or a faint watermark. Keep a simple log in a notebook or a spreadsheet: note the bill’s number, its condition, and any price you’d pay for it today. That way you can track value without buying pricey appraisal services. If you want to show a few favorites, a cheap shadow box or a shallow display case works better than a glass frame—just enough to keep dust out. Scan each bill once and save the files on a cloud folder or a spare external drive; it’s a backup in case something happens to the originals. And remember, the stories the bills carry are priceless—just a few neat organizational steps will keep them safe and still let you read their silent histories whenever you like.
