    Ahh craft day for an octogenarian. I had my daughter buy me one.
    I already have one on order, and wanted to make a display of sorts including the coin and first day covers.
    Here's what I came up with.
    What do you think, beside me being a crazy old man.
    I used a regular 2025 Proof ASE to check the hole diameter. 2025 ASE ARMY craft A.jpg

    I'm guessing that there are many projects related to the 250th anniversary. I think I will stat a thread on that.

    What material did you use for the main piece? (a.k.a. big white rectangle)

    @Mr. Numismatist
    Both the picture frame and foam board I bought at Walmart.
    The foam board was 24 x 30 inch but only $2.97, the frame was the same price but I had to modify it.
