Yes it fits in a USPS Medium flat rate box. That's how most of my orders come.

You can mail two of these in the medium flat rate box. I took my pennies that I sold ($50.00 face copper) and it weighed over 36 pounds. Priority mail shipping cost would have been $45.00 if I had not used the flat rate box which was $12.95 plus insurance and delivery confirmation. The post office loses big on these when we ship metals! Sincerely, John Leckrone
The price of gold, silver, copper and oil are not going up. The value of the US fiat "money" being compared to it is going down! Inflation is government theft by deception. Protect yourself. Got gold, silver and copper?

I absolutely LOVE flat rate boxes! They are especially good for overseas. I've sent some packages that would have been over $100 for around $45.
