Slerk Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 1555 Posts	Posted 05/08/2024 12:21 am In a few months I will be in Bangkok. I have a silver coin given by my mother and I would really like to value it. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to do this in Russia, or it costs a lot of money (logistics, dealer services and appraisal company services) and amounts to a round sum. I'd like to try to do this directly. Give your coin to a person in Bangkok, he will send it for evaluation, and the company, when sending the coins back, will send it not to Bangkok but to me in Russia. Is this possible? Or will it also cost a decent amount? P.S. The coin is not very valuable. This is a regular 1 oz silver coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Once it's gone you could lose it forever and forever is a very long time. Report this Post to the Staff

If the coin is evaluated in China or Europe, then there should be no problems with delivery. But it is possible that the parcel from China will take longer than usual. I don't know why, but China Post is quite slow. I have friends in Europe and the USA, but they definitely won't help me in this matter. The only way they can help me is to act as intermediaries in the delivery of the parcel I really want to put a coin in PCGS or NGC. Report this Post to the Staff
