Frugal plaque fixing to the wall?

[seeking...@myway.com]

I bought today six plaques (likely made from plaster) for ten cents
each, and they look real expensive, like from a castle. I want to put
them in the house on a wooden painted wall. Problem is only that I
don't want to mess up my wall with experiments and that Velcro is
likely not strong enough to hold the plaques. Each weighs two pounds.

Any idea how I can fix them to the wall without that I ruin my wall or
without that they fall off?

Nails generally do the least amount of danage to a wall. Adhesive-backed
hangers are usually a disaster.

4d or 6d (also known as 4 penny or 6 penny) nails work well, unless your
items are over 10 lb (4.55kg). For heavier items, use larger nails driven
into the walls' studs.

Yoko Onos' former driver tried to extort $2M from her, threating to
"release embarassing recordings...". What, he has a copy of her album?

Just get someone to hold them up against the wall briefly for you so you
can see if they look appropriate in the location where you want them.
