<p>[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 2769800, member: 42773"]As far as Canada and certain other countries go, if the postal system is reliable, you can get away with sending the coin in a small envelope as a non-machinable letter, for only a couple dollars. This is the cheapest way to go for your buyers. There is no tracking, and no customs declaration if the the package weighs less than an ounce. It's a bit of a gamble, but as long as the coin isn't terribly valuable, it's the cheapest and best way. I've mailed many coins that way to the UK, Australia, Canada, Netherlands, Hungary, and Singapore. It takes much longer - don't ask me why. I think they use pigeons.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
