Ah, corpus delicti - a crime has been committed, or has it? I predict the potential victim of a crime shall actually show up in the mail today, so you are Ner(o) to having it in hand. You should be prow"d" to own it!
Happy ending. The coin just arrived in my mailbox-it was registered but I guess the post office is waiving the signature.
