I received once a set of gold lord of the rings coins that was sent through the USPO. the seller had an excellent record. to my horror, several of the capsulated had bounced out of their case indentations and one coin had escaped its capsule and had rubbed against the included metal ring on the coin's obverse side, causing considerable scratches. it was not the fault of the seller... it was the fault of pobjoy mint for not including enough padding inside the case to keep the capsules and hence the coins themselves from escaping. I got ahold of the seller and explained the issue, he refunded me $200 but in reality the value of the set was reduced a lot more than that, but that is only my opinion. I just ate it and accepted the situation, no hard feelings against the seller at all, not his fault.
