So without thinking I finally found something I had been searching for. I normally do not order things from overseas but this was from Direct coins in Australia so I said why not. I paid the expensive shipping but I finally got my item I have been looking for. Well I was not thinking at I knew it just it never dawned on me. When it goes through customs the contents has to be declared. Well Now everyone From Australia to my local mail man now know I stack silver poop. It was a simple mistake but a big mistake. I am posting so everyone knows and considers the consequences before making an overseas order. Clearly on the front of the box in big black bold letters Numismatics 99% silver coins. oh well I hope everyone takes my advise or learns from my mistakes make sure it is worth it. No one from friends to family knew I stacked except now all postal service workers. I guess I have to take a ordering break or only use fedex until the post man forgets because well he knows my routines... I dont wanna take any chances I will let it kool out. or use FEDEx for a while lol.

Probably more paranoia than the event merits. I've known plenty of post people, and they could care less what you are getting.

And yes, the latest package I got in from Canada said exactly what was inside and the value.

99.99% of the workers that are involved with our mail are safe to handle whatever comes to us daily.

I wouldn't worry about it.
