[QUOTE="baseball21, post: 3305384, member: 76863"]Those are secondary concerns of customs. Some people will get caught not declaring that merchandise others won't, buying legal things in a foreign country to try and apply taxes for you is not customs main concern. Irrelevant. Believe it or not, Customs basically couldn't care less about numismatics. They have more important things to worry about. If you want to try and cheat import taxes that's on you aside from that your coins aren't a threat to anything. It is for the important things and this had nothing to do with TSA. The point was that depending where your flight originated there is some assumption that the departing country did their job and prescreened things for weapons, bombs ect. If you're coming back from a third world country you will get more attention. Either way your bags are all getting screened. And they won't care at all. They don't answer to them. Go down to your local sheriffs office. Demand to speak with them and give them feedback because as a tax payer you're their boss. See how well that goes. That's basically what you think they're worried about.[/QUOTE]
