TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4870 Posts	Posted 03/30/2008 09:48 am I am seeing a number of coin auctions on ebay that use "media mail" to ship coins. It was my understanding that this method of shipping was for media only such as cd's, dvd's, and publications? Report this Post to the Staff
