Can I ship a Flat Rate Priority Box via Registered Mail?

I'm preparing to ship some rather expensive coin rolls, and was wondering if the PO will allow you to use Registered Mail in conjunction with their flat-rate shipping boxes. I looked over the USPS Extra Services manual (found here: http://pe.usps.gov/text/dmm300/503.htm#wp1100045) but couldn't find any specific mention as to whether or not a flat-rate Priority box is eligible for Registered Mail shipping. Anybody know? Thanks.

Yes it is.

yes, but don't put tape over the words Flat rate box.

You can use it and you will pay for Priority Mail as well as Registered Mail.

Yes

Yes you can, but either you or the PO will have to seal any openings around the edges with brown tape. They do that everytime I use that box for registered.

I've sent dozens of heavy packages that way. I think that my record flat-rate registered is 28 lbs. Its a good way to send 90% silver coins if you've got a bunch of it.

It's the best way to ship 90% silver.
