USPS paid off on a lost coin for me. It was a couple of years ago. I've always told my postman what the insurance was for and he never said anything about coins not being covered.
I also has a ebay seller ship a "sealed" mint sewn bag of 5000 cents. When I picked up the package it was in bad shape and had coins falling out of the poorly taped box.
The seam was open about 3 inches and the bad had holes where some kind of chemical had been spilled on the bag and coins were falling out there too.
I went back and looked at the photos on ebay and could see where the seller had folded the bag just right so it only looked a little discolored in spots.
The seller had to deal with the insurance, but he said he got his money back. With that seller, it could have been a lie too.
