And arrive it did. In the black bubble wrap plastic mailer. OGP survived just fine and the coins themselves look good.
Definitely like that Cray the best!

Mine arrived on Saturday as expected. Black bubble mailer, too. No damage. The coins look okay, no issues. They look better in the Dansco.

Mine shipped out on the 14th, should have had it by now, tracking shows it's been sitting at the San Diego Distb. Center since the 16th. Due to fires last week and the 5 freeway being shut down (in both direction) would UPSP drop it at an alternate distribution center? I don't think so, UPSP worker placed it in the wrong truck? Most likely That new packaging makes me wonder  Just watching and waiting is all I can do.

Now I know how Dearborn felt...  From SanDiego UPSP just drove right by me to drop it off by LAX and now just about an hour ago dropped it off at the So.Cal Dist. Center near me...might get them tomorrow or most likely Monday. Which I guess is OK because I don't have the up to date Caps Album page.

I just retreived mine yesterday. But, it may have been sitting in the box for a few days. I only check about once a week.
I'm a little surprised to hear the comments about black bubble pack packaging. Mine was in a normal cardboard box. I was a little suspicious that the package may have been opened at some point for inspection, by the way it was sealed with heavy tape. Not as professional-looking as the packaging I'm familiar with from US Mint products.
Anyway, the one I opened seems to be problem free. I agree with cptbilly about the Steve Jobs coin. Too bad they've discontinued the Proof version. :^(
At the same pickup, I also received my BU P&D Minnesota Refrigeration Dollars, which also seem problem free.

The mint switched up things a little bit, it would seem. smaller sized orders in the plastic package, and larger heavier ones in boxes. But the mint changed from the clear packing tape to the heavy brown packing tape a few months back
