Does anyone here have the Eaglemoss Enterprise D dedication plaque? If so, did you figure out a way to mount it on the wall?

I can't figure it out. It isn't huge, but it's heavy. Specs are 9 x 2 x 12 inches - ‎1.52 pounds. And it's totally smooth on the back. Nowhere to put a hook. Has anyone figured out a way to do it?

The picture is where I have it now. On the mantle, next to Robbie. But I have a giant Spock on my wall and I want it next to him.

On a side note, does anyone know why it's designated "USS"? Doesn't that mean "United States Ship"? Isn't the federation a kind of whole earth effort? I know that there's an actual US aircraft carrier with that name, but I thought space travel was nonpartisan.
- United Spaceship
  
  I am no TOS expert but I think this is right, though I think the later instances of it being said are as Star Ship.
  I think I also read in one novel it meaning UFP Starfleet Ship, but that’s at best Memory Beta.
  
  You think that's confusing... Starfleet was originally UESPA, the United Earth Space Probe Agency. And there have been some very laudable, but still very poor, attempts to reconcile that... especially in Enterprise... but it just makes no sense based on the rest of Star Trek.

  UESPA was a decent of JPL and Star Fleet was a decent of NASA?
  Some intercooperation was bound to happen though 🙂
  
  Maybe, but it shouldn't still exist by the time of Charlie X.

  If you look at it through the lens of “it was just people writing a script and having no idea it would become a much-scrutinized cultural icon”…. It makes enough sense.
