[QUOTE="NPCoin, post: 352573, member: 5629"]In accordance with [URL="http://www.fedex.com/us/services/terms/us.html"]The FedEx Service Terms and Conditions[/URL], you may not ship collectible coins via their service. As well, the [URL="http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/service.html?WT.svl=Footer"]UPS Tariffs/Terms And Conditions[/URL] also make it clear that coins, even bullion, are restricted from shipment with their service.
