Sorry to hear about the difficulties with your delivery!  Unfortunately a lot of hands are involved along the delivery route & it doesn't take much to slice the cellophane tape and pop out the contents. I wish they would use some sort of Tamper Proof Packaging.

Quote: The carrier would scan the package inside the building and then put it in a box. No way the GPS would be able to distinguish which box My concern is more focused on the mail truck, out on deliver and out of sight from other workers and cameras

Thanks All, Getting The U S Mint's colorful, Larger than life brochures for the last few decades whether at my home or the PO Box that are delivered without an envelope, for all to see may be a Bad move. I mean deceitful people are going to always be looking for an edge, I believe showing everyone looking coin brochures in full color, Sends a message that this address loves coins and the next time a package is delivered It may be a Gold or Silver coin, shakes like a coins inside.....  Those little details/observations are leading to temptations, That some obviously just give in to.

Gilly,
As mentioned This theft is the Fourth time.
First, I had delivery's to my home with the First theft being around 2000, Reported it to the local Post Master @ the local PO. Since then I opened a mailbox Because the Packages I was receiving were More than a few weekly. Then the Second time was from the U S Postal service, package was delivered and Apparently the American Silver Eagle was Removed and the set was Returned to my box, Exactly when and where it was tampered with ?
Reported it Again to the local Post Master in the local PO, Nothing definitive in My favor was resolved then either.
Again My address was changed re-routing the packages back to my home, Then the Third time, a Limited Edition Silver Proof Set disappeared from earth, Tracked to my home as " delivered " it Never was, Ring cam does Not show any packages delivered @ that time, Where did it go, ?
Now to date the Fourth Theft was from My home Also, as described Above it was placed in Our mailbox Empty, They are getting Brazen, I navigate coin forums, From the stories I have seen, I am lucky, Very Lucky it was not more valuable.
Sad, Just the same.

I spoke to a Supervisor@ the mint they assured me the coin is Still available and they Will Replace the coin, Not a refund Once the CNR ( certificate of non receipt is received by them. ). I faxed it over and Re- spoke to the mint they stated after 2-days, they did not receive it, re-re-sent the fax and Monday I will call again, Thanks Gilly...... Every time in the past I then Too was assured a replacement, Always received a refund instead, I am Not new at returns.  Lets see Monday.... Supposed to have a powerful snow storm Sunday through Monday evening.  PS, A Blizzard, the likes Long Island have not seen in a while Will hit Long Island hard Too, snow-18"-24"possible, Blinding Heavy Snow conditions

I really hope they investigate (or investigated) what happened to the shipment. I'd hate to think that it didn't "get pinched" this time because whoever did it knows they are watching "for the time being".
