Observe Albanian money to be back in the frame (8)
I believe the answer is:
skeleton
'the frame' is the definition.
('skeleton' can be a synonym of 'frame')
'observe albanian money to be back' is the wordplay.
'observe' becomes 'note' (synonyms).
'albanian money' becomes 'leks' (currency of Albania).
'to be back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'note'+'leks'='noteleks'
'noteleks' reversed gives 'SKELETON'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for skeleton that I've seen before include "This key fits many locks" , "Bodily framework" , "Key perhaps" , "Framework, outline" , "Framework (kept in the cupboard?)" .)
