Harmonica Pillar of the Community Canada 1118 Posts	Posted 03/17/2016 6:30 pm If I was to frame some stock certificates I imagine wood would give off gas so sterling silver or aluminium for the border. The glass should be glazed to protect from UV light and I would need matting to prevent the seal from being smushed by the glass... Should I just use a comic book back board instead? I really want to hang them but not as much as I want to preserve them. Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 03/17/2016 7:13 pm Just use archival quality backboard and uv resistant glass. Simple. And sterling sounds good for the frame plus it adds a touch of class which compliments stock certs well. Just be warned that you'll have to polish them occasionally Report this Post to the Staff
