if I could afford that round I wouldn't need to send him stuff through the mail..

 

What is the purpose of this care package? Are you trying to introduce him to collecting? Or is he in the military and you just want to show support?

Also, is he an American living in the UK or a Brit? If you are trying to get him into collecting coins, would he not be more interested in UK coins versus US?

 

this picture would be epic if he had his pinky at his lips...

 

Some white cotton gloves.

 

Do not get stuck thinking. At first, find out what year your friend was born. Then send him same year US proof or BU coin set. (you can easily find such sets on ebay.) I am sure your friend will be happy.
In my opinion birth year set is the perfect gift for almost anybody. Good luck.

P.S. If you think coin set is not enough, then add Jack Daniels to it

 

to answer your question ,just to trade hobby interest and have a friendly relations also were fraternity brothers..no military but hes into war memeorabilia, hes british, I gave him a copy of my digital library..
so that's one thing..

 

Your friend might like something that was "dug". In my experience, many detectorists appreciate items most when the item looks like it was "dug". Perhaps you could send him something "dug" from your neighborhood such as a Civil War bullet or an American Indian arrowhead. They don't find those historic items buried in the UK.
