To reply to From memory (and it was a while ago that I had some pictures framed) you can get both acid-free and not, when framing pictures. I will definitely post what I come up with. Thanks :-)

Hello, I collect British 50p and Australian 50c commemorative coins. Just an oddity I started years ago. :-) What I would like to do is display the coins in frames on my wall so I can see them. To do this I would like cut a hole for each coin in a mounting card so I can get the wanted number of coins in the frame. The closest idea to this I have seen is a display tray available on ebay - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=111247810305. However, I want to be able to put the old and new sizes in a frame together as I only have a few of the old larger size coins. I thought I would use the acid free card that is used for mounting photos and pictures. Does anyone know if there are punch's available that cut a 50p shaped hole? I can't find anything 7 sided so far. I would settle for a circle the right size. I would need one each for the old and new 50p coins. The Aussie 50c coins are slightly bigger than the old British 50p. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you BrightLady :-)
