Hi, new member here. I’ve been collecting since i was 9 years old, so far 50+ years and going.
Below is an image of the item I am seeking to source form personal use. With this stated, I respectfully request assistance with what these items are specifically called and where can I acquire more?
Your kind attention & response to the above request will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Those appear to be Crystal Mounts. I do not recommend using those. They seal shut with adhesive and can damage the stamps perforations or cause bending. They also make it more likely to damage a stamp when removing them. I recommend you use split back mounts instead.

Thank you Ryan.
I see what you mean about the “Crystal Mounts”, the split backs may be my best option.
Why I am seeking such out, is because I utilize “Vario” sheets for my collection. Stamps of which I have had certificates for are placed on a seperate page away from the cert in question.
My intention is to mount the stamp upon the face of the cert so both are married up and displayed as one.
Thank you

@jblaha I use full page vario sheets. 1 giant pocket. I put one cert in each page. Then I put the stamp in an approval card at the bottom of the page.

@ryanjoneson Nice solution. I like this idea. Thank you once again.
Now I’m off to shop for some approval cards.
Have a Safe & Happy New Year to you & yours.
