Sean, It's best to do a search hear first. The first thing you need to think about is do you want the certificate to be in an acid free enviroment. That is of course your choice, The second choice is humidity that the certificate well be kept in.
If you frame it do you want in in and archival framing? If it's framed will it be in sunlight, or house light. If you are not concern than any frame and home enviroment will work for you. Paul

Here's some examples:
The two paper items in this display are held in place with photo corners; small triangular things that hold photographs in albums.

And here's a picture frame that will show both sides. Very cool IMO.
