<p>[QUOTE=&quot;nerosmyfavorite68, post: 25446957, member: 134416&quot;]Ugh, after going through all the rigamarole and writing a report (and slipping in a mention of all the priority mail maulings I had) on the postal inspection site, it says this item is not eligible for an enquiry, but rather a postal refund (of the $30 shipping).</p><p><br /></p><p>It also said that a report had been put in, so it appears that the seller was on the up and up about that, not that I had too many doubts.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess my 30 year streak is still good.&nbsp; I have zero (purchased by me) slabbed coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Pretty much my only hope is that it fell behind a machine or something of that sort.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure I&#039;ll get the purchase price back, but it stinks that both the seller and myself are out something.&nbsp; The seller had also mentioned that USPS doesn&#039;t honor insurance on coins, so he had been out the money on a previous loss.</p><p><br /></p><p>That slab probably stuck out like a sore thumb, or showed up in the x-ray, and was swiped.&nbsp; We have similar x-ray machines at work, so it would probably show what&#039;s inside.&nbsp; That&#039;s another beauty of ancient coins.&nbsp; They generally aren&#039;t slabbed.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin wasn&#039;t tremendously expensive, around $130, but it is certainly annoying.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
