Back in November, a package traveling from Massachusetts to me in New York went missing. It was shipped USPS Express mail and the last the tracking indicated is that it departed Boston. That's when the package fell off the grid. I reported it to everyone I can think of including the Numismatic Crime Information Center except this forum. I really want my coins! They are nice coins and, if stolen, at some point will pop up. Here are the contents:
1813 1c Classic Large Cent PCGS V30 Cert #38189534
1837 10c Small Date No Stars Dime PCGS X40 CAC Cert #38406913
1794 50c Flowing Hair Half Dollar PCGS VG10 CAC Cert #4994849
1870-CC $1 Seated Liberty Dollar PCGS V20 Cert #38406997
Because of their condition and rarity they may likely show up somewhere and this forum has some of the best super sleuths in the hobby! Please PM me if you've seen them!!
Thank you for your time and attention!

Dang, Nice group. Have any pictures? Tough enough that even if they are cracked out they can probably be identified. Fingers Crossed!
Damn. USPS overnights are not supposed to go missing.
Ow! Hope your coins are recovered @chesterb!
Very sorry to hear of your loss... I hope you recover the coins. Cheers, RickO
Hopefully things will work out.
None of these have TrueView photos. Likely thieves would crack them out as the serial number makes them easily tracked. Presumably, you did not purchase these sight-unseen, so photos of them would be necessary to identify them.
Very sorry to hear about this. There should be a special circle in hell for those who steal coins.

Hopefully they've fallen into the hands of someone too stupid to know any better!
Hopefully misplaced and will arrive.

I hope you get them and they hang them by the toes
Thanks. I am looking for photos but agree will have the photos ready in case they show up. If anyone sees anything then please let me know.
I hope you find them and that they were insured correctly.
