I am framing sets of the state quarters. The mighty mounts are a hair too big even though they are the "quarter size". I need to secure them a little better since right now they can spin with a little tilt of the frame. Does anyone have any suggestions of a tacking product that is reversible and safe to use with quarters?
Thanks.

Could you try applying a little heat (maybe with a shrink wrap gun or hair dryer), and then bending the Mighty-Mount slightly to get a tighter grip? Probably wouldn't take much adjustment (or heat).
:cool: Rick
 
Wrap them in clear film. It takes about 5 minutes per coin, and it's almost invisible. Detailed instructions are in the archives.
 
Click on the "search" command toward the top center of this page (and most pages.)

I think the term "archives" is misleading. When I was new here, I wasted a lot of time looking for priceless information, lovingly stored and cataloged, perhaps on a separate sub-forum.

Turns out the archives are just a bunch of old threads that haven't been deleted yet.

There ARE so priceless treasures there, but you have to dig a little.
 
Thanks for the tips. Bending the arms worked well. The only thing to watch out for is that the quarters ended up being slightly crooked after bending the arms. I don't think it is enough to bother with though. Thanks again.
