So maybe I'm a bit patriot but I would like to display the State Quarters in a nice looking and practical frame, to hand on the wall. It should allow the viewer to see both sides, could be protected by glass or plastic and preferably have a real wood edging (not faux wood or plastic) Price range: $50-$100. Am I expecting too much? I figure it was better to ask my fellow collectors than head for QVC, HSN or ebay, for obvious reasons. A link to the site or picture would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all in advance & HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Nice research Mila ! Those were some pretty cool & creative frames.

The only thing I can add is if you want a frame that allows you to see both sides then you might also want to checkout wall frame holders from airtites at http://www.airtiteholders.com/

Thanks Ken. I try to help as much as I can.
I just had an

From what I see of these frames they don't have the ability to view the coins both sides. If you want any of these....maybe, (but very carefully) hollow out each slot to make the both sided view and custom make the back of the frame to have a glass cover as the front of the frame.

Here is an idea. Get a piece of glass the size you would need to display all the coins. Lay down one each with one face up and one face down next to each other. Check out where to buy liquid plastic such as hobby shops. People use it for that stuff called decopage or something like that. Put the glass in a frame, pour the liquid plastic over the coins, allow to harden. Make sure there is no room for the plastic to leak out between the frame and the glass. You will now have a framed coin display where you can see both sides of the coins and never have to worry about the coins tarnishing, toning, discoloring.
As to the glass and frame that is something you can probably find at Walmart, Kmart, Target, etc. The only thing is to first lay out the coins to see how much room you'll need so that is the size of the glass and frame you need.
