<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KBBPLL, post: 10859968, member: 104064&quot;]This is what comes up if you search for something like &quot;fedex shipping coins.&quot; It gives you a link to restrictions for Japan. You will note that the link has &quot;en-jp&quot; in it and if you pick English, it pulls up a Japanese document. As I mentioned in my previous post, if you go here <a href="https://www.fedex.com/en-us/shipping/international-prohibited-items.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.fedex.com/en-us/shipping/international-prohibited-items.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.fedex.com/en-us/shipping/international-prohibited-items.html</a> and look up United States, it says nothing about coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>It appears the whole thing revolves around &quot;declared value&quot;, and they specifically say that declared value is NOT insurance. On their declared value page, they say &quot;If you declare a value for <a href="https://www.fedex.com/en-us/service-guide/terms/express-ground-samedaycity.html#declared-value-for-carriage-and-limits-of-liability-international" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.fedex.com/en-us/service-guide/terms/express-ground-samedaycity.html#declared-value-for-carriage-and-limits-of-liability-international" rel="nofollow">items that are prohibited</a> (e.g., firearms, cash or currency, tobacco products) and they are lost or damaged, you will not be reimbursed&quot;, and the link you&#039;re directed to leads to their service guide. Their service guide is here <a href="https://www.fedex.com/content/dam/fedex/us-united-states/services/Service_Guide_2022.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.fedex.com/content/dam/fedex/us-united-states/services/Service_Guide_2022.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.fedex.com/content/dam/fedex/us-united-states/services/Service_Guide_2022.pdf</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Page 128 says &quot;F. Shipments (packages or freight) containing all or part of the following items are limited to a maximum declared value of US$1,000: ... 11. Collector’s items such as coins, stamps, sports cards, souvenirs, and memorabilia&quot; It says essentially the same thing on page 144 under international shipments. </p><p><br /></p><p>So, what I glean is that certain countries prohibit the international shipment of coins, and in all cases your &quot;declared value&quot; is limited to $1000 if you are shipping coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
