I know that making, or preparing to make, counterfeit bills is illegal. I also know that if you use counterfeit currency you can have problems whether you were aware of it or not.

I would like to buy or acquire counterfeit bills to keep for educational research purposes. Is there a legal way to do this?

I am interested mainly in Polish Złoty as well as Euro and Dollar bills.

Generally speaking, if you can render the bills "unfit for circulation" then you should be ok.

One way to do this would be to laminate the bills in plastic, with an indellible label that states: "COUNTERFEIT CURRENCY" or something to that effect.
