I could not find a commercially made holder, so I made my own. I used high-end foam board from an artist supply store. I thought about making a punch by sharpening and forming a thin piece of steel, but in the end used an insert from a five coin year set as a template and an exacto knife. Photo shop and good printer paper made the overlay.
