I’m looking for an NFC Reader with Python library and  
around 3.5-inch display with integrated RTC battery or cell which can installed on a separate board with Python library and compatible with Raspberry Pi 3 B+.  
Thank you.

Hi Muhammad,

For the NFC reader, I would definitely suggest the [Adafruit PN532](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-pn532-nfc-rfid-controller-shield-for-arduino-extras.html).

There is a great, easy to follow tutorial [here](https://learn.pimoroni.com/tutorial/tanya/getting-started-with-NFC) on how to interface it with the RPi.

We don’t sell the 3.5" display with the RTC battery integrated, I’m going to have to get back to you for that one. There are several from sites like Banggood and NewEgg but we’ll see if we can source one from Australia for you. Hopefully, this can at least give you a start on the project!
