[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1856411, member: 112"]The kicker is out of the USA, insurance usually won't cover anything that leaves the country. But as Tom said, some private insurance might. They will tell you that because that's what their regulations say, and the person you actually talk to if you call them, or even if you go to the desk in person, all they know is how to recite regulations. But in point of fact they will all insure, and honor the insurance, on coins you ship with them. And if you talk to the right person, usually a supervisor, they know the correct answers. The deal is they will not cover you sending money, cash. Coins, as they think of them are cash, circulating money. Collectible coins however are not cash, they are collectibles and they can be covered by the insurance of the shippers that you buy. What's the best way, Registered Mail. You can cover/insure a single package for up to $25,000 with Registered Mail. And the USPS will honor all of their insurance.
