Spott Valued Member United States 263 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 1:31 pm I also would like to extend my appreciation to Rgoodie for running such a fun exchange. I was one of those who requested in-country-only this year as I was sick and afraid I would not have time to shop and ship internationally once I could go to the stores again. However, all that is done and I can send something to those who haven't received a gift, if another sender is needed. Report this Post to the Staff

marckdaniels Valued Member Uruguay 150 Posts	Posted 12/29/2023 09:02 am Haven't received so far, but my match neither has received it! However, the tracking I have sent says it is in the country of the receivers, so he will receive it in the following days!

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25270 Posts	Posted 12/29/2023 7:06 pm Nice ones, Dearborn! And what a coincidence that your Secret Santa sent you two coins from 1962! Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96315 Posts	Posted 12/29/2023 7:33 pm Thanks Mike, but he sent me 6 1962 coins and a note stating that maybe I can use them in my birth year set. So I'm guessing that he is monitoring my progress with it too. I'll be posting up the rest soon. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25270 Posts	Posted 12/30/2023 1:51 pm Nice ones, Dearborn - your Secret Santa was most righteous! Quote: YES - the portrait is on the reverse On Mexico's coins, the Mexican coat of arms is always the obverse, just as on coins with a UK monarch the effigy is always the obverse.

However, the tracking I have sent says it is in the country of the receivers, so he will receive it in the following days! Similarly. The last update was on December 18th. The most interesting thing is that the parcel is still not in the recipient's country. She is at an intermediate point. I hope that she will arrive after the new year.

mrpapageorgio Pillar of the Community United States 669 Posts	Posted 12/31/2023 03:08 am Just a suggestion for those in the US shipping international. Pirate Ship has been a life saver when I've traded/sold coins when buying USPS postage and they offer a pretty decent rate on UPS shipments and get the paperwork setup for international shipments.
