thanks in advance,

    I put the coins in their numbered flips in a box. If there is any extra space I put in some bubble wrap or anything to keep the flips from moving. Then I tape it up with paper tape and send it registered. Don't forget the submission form. I've had to reopen a box before. If
    the box isn't real sturdy, you might want to put it in another box and pack crumpled newspaper around it. Then send registered, insured of course. mdwoods

    I place the coin(s) in a flip (with the line number from the submission form on the paper insert). I then place the coin(s) in a bubble mailer (along with the submission form). It then gets sent to their address via the appropriate level of care (regular mail for a cheap freebie to registered for expensive items).

    If you mail it now for economy service, dress your coins in winter coats, because you won't see them again until Christmas!!! image
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    I put the flips in the sticky cardboard things and put that in a envelope then put that in a express or priority mail cardboard envelope and mail it insured with signature confirmation.
