<p>[QUOTE=&quot;afantiques, post: 2337744, member: 71234&quot;]There are some steps you can take to minimise risk.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do not sell US coins and currency except lower grade and always raw, no overseas buyer will pay you extra for a slab.</p><p><br /></p><p>You can insure numismatic coins and bills with a transit insurer like shipsurance. They do not cover &#039;money&#039; but items of numismatic value are covered, read their terms and conditions for excluded countries and details of cover.</p><p><br /></p><p>Never use the prefill customs description on the ebay postal label, always edit the description to a brief &#039;Numismatic material&#039; and personally I never put a value of over $20. </p><p><br /></p><p>Notes and coins from around the world tend to find the best prices around the world. From Britain I have sold notes and coins to dozens of countries.Never had a problem of any consequence.(Also never sent anything with tracking.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Use basic First Class International mail. For any item under 4 pounds weight it gets exactly the same treatment as Priority, but costs less. Never use a flat rate envelope or box without filling it to the weight limit, they are poor value half filled.</p><p><br /></p><p>USSPS has electronic delivery confirmation to a whole raft of countries at no extra cost if you buy your postage online.</p><p><br /></p><p>Avoid the ebay GSP at all costs, it is wildly unsuitable for any lightweight item of relatively low value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
