What is the proper way to mount arrowheads?

Ben

I have a collection of arrowheads and I am having the mounted in a wooden case that will hang on the wall. This will go in a museum so it needs to be good. What is the proper way to mount them? Do the point face upwards, downwards, or to the side? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Typically they face upwards but I have seen just as many frames with the points in designs such as spiraling circles. Any way you want to design a frame is ok. Points shoud never be glued or wired in though, the glass top should put pressure on the artifacts pushing them down into foam and holding them in place.
