[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 4717769, member: 59677"]You need to be careful. If you declare it as a coin, several countries don't permit it to be shipped and per FedEx it's not insurable. [URL]http://www.fedex.com/ne/shippingguide/terms/[/URL] If the description is too obscure they may well refuse to pay off on the insurance. There is no duty importing gold coins, but it must be declared [URL]https://help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1594?language=en_US[/URL] Numismatic (collector's) coins are duty free [URL]https://hts.usitc.gov/?query=numismatic[/URL] and I'm not a customs broker, but I would use "Numismatic items, HST 9705.00.00" if I were going to send something.[/QUOTE]
