You want something really safe and non-reactive without harmful chemicals. Something like mylar or archival polyester. There are several companies that appear to be reputable sellers of true archival supplies. The problem though, is that you usually have to buy a quantity. Several years ago, I determined everything I thought I would need for the next 5 or 10 years, and ordered a bunch of supplies from Archival Methods or Conservation Resources (don't remember which, offhand) and from Gaylord Archival so I'd always have some handy.</p><p>Something like this might work for you:</p><p><a href="https://www.gaylord.com/Preservation/Artifact-%26-Collectibles-Preservation/Labeling-%26-Supplies/Archival-Polyester-3-Pocket-Currency-Page/p/CP7835" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.gaylord.com/Preservation/Artifact-%26-Collectibles-Preservation/Labeling-%26-Supplies/Archival-Polyester-3-Pocket-Currency-Page/p/CP7835" rel="nofollow">https://www.gaylord.com/Preservation/Artifact-&-Collectibles-Preservation/Labeling-&-Supplies/Archival-Polyester-3-Pocket-Currency-Page/p/CP7835</a></p><p>they also have a 2-pocket version.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
